Reactions between the bis-imido compounds [M(NBut)2X2] (M = Cr or Mo, X = Cl, M = W, X = NHBut) and tetraphenyldisiloxanediol (1:1) in the presence of two equivalents of added py where X = Cl gave the products [{CrO(NBut)(O(Ph2SiO)2)}2] 1, [Mo(NBut)(py)(O(Ph2SiO)2)2] 2 and [W(NBut)(NH2But)(O(Ph2SiO) 2)2] 3 showing a marked variation from Cr to Mo and W. Single crystal X-ray studies of 1·C6H5Me, 2·py and 3·C6H5Me were made. Compound 1 is the first chromium(VI) oxo-imido compound to be structurally characterised and the first example of a chromium(VI) monocyclic metallasiloxane. Compounds 2 and 3 incorporate the first examples of six-membered metallasiloxane rings for compounds of Mo or W. The compounds were also characterised by multinuclear NMR and mass spectroscopy.
