The controlled hydrogenolysis of MexSnR4-x (0 ≤ x ≤ 4; R = methyl, n-butyl, tert-butyl, neopentyl, cyclohexyl) onto Rh/SiO 2 is followed by quantitative and qualitative analysis of evolved gases. Only MeH and RH are detected in the evolved gases. There is hydrogenolysis of the Sn-C bonds without any C-C bond hydrogenolysis, leading to formation of grafted organometallic fragments. Using various organotin compounds, MexSnR4-x, it has been possible to determine the regioselectivity of the hydrogenolysis of the Sn-C bonds. The initial selectivity is inversely proportional to the steric bulk of the alkyl group: tBu xR4-x (symmetry D3h), in which the bulkiest group, e.g., R, is away from the surface could explain these results. This surface five-coordinate tin species could eliminate an alkyl group, generally a methyl group, thus decreasing the steric bulk around the tin, into the equatorial plane of D3h, via a concerted hydrogen transfer-elimination mechanism to give Rh-SnMex-1R4-x. Then, in the successive steps of the hydrogenolysis, the bulkiest group, R, would be eliminated.
Selective lithiation of 1-bromo-2-((trimethylstannyl)methyl)benzene: Synthesis of 1-bromo-2-(lithiomethyl)benzene, 1-lithio-2-((trimethylstannyl)methyl)benzene, and α,2-dilithiotoluene

Reactions of 1-bromo-2-((trimethylstannyl)methyl)benzene (1) with n-butyllithium and tert-butyllithium have been investigated. With n-butyllithium in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at -70°C, the only observed process was lithium-tin exchange, yielding 1-bromo-2-(lithiomethyl)benzene (2). In contrast, lithium-halogen exchange occurred when 1 was treated with tert-butyllithium in diethyl ether at -80°C to give 1-lithio-2-((trimethylstannyl)methyl)benzene (3). α,2-Dilithiotoluene could be prepared in high yield from 3 and tert-butyllithium in either diethyl ether (room temperature) or THF (-80°C).

Mixed trialkyltin iodides form EDA complexes with iodine.The λCT data suggest an electron transfer from the iodide lone pairs.Rate constants for the reaction under photochemical conditions are determined by kinetic measurements.The selectivity parameter derived from the rate constants and from mass spectrometric measurements prove the presence of a fragmentation step in the reaction process.
Nucleophilicity vs. basicity in reactions of n-butyllithium and tert-butyllithium with tetramethylstannane
Farah, Dan,Karol, Thomas J.,Kuivila, Henry G.
, p. 662 - 666 (2008/10/08)
The reactions of n-butyllithium and tert-butyllithium with tetramethylstannane have been examined with the objective of determining the degree of competition between proton abstraction from the methyl groups and nucleophilic displacement of these groups f
