2,2-Functionally disubstituted organotin compounds: synthesis and reactivity

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/0022-328X(94)88031-X

A series of 2,2-difunctional organotin compounds of the general type Me3SnCH2CHXY (X, Y=P(O)R2 or C(O)R; R=Oi-Pr, OEt or Ph) has been synthesized by stannylmethylation of the appropriate 2,2-difunctional methanides Na with iodomethyl trimethylstannane.Derivaties with phenyl groups on tin cannot be made by this method.The reactions of the title compounds at the tin atom and at the acidic CH group of the bridging carbon atom and modifications of the functional P(O)R2 and C(O)R groups are described. Key words: Tin; Phosphoryl
