THE CHEMICAL BEHAVIOUR OF COBALT-STABILIZED-CARBENES HAVING A TRISUBSTITUTED SILYL OR GERMYL LIGAND. STEREOSPECIFIC FORMATION OF BENZOYLSILANES FROM THE REACTION OF ORGANOSILYL-COBALT TETRACARBONYL DERIVATIVES WITH PHENYLLITHIUM

We report the chemical behaviour of cobalt-stabilized carbenes, R3M(CO)3CoC(OEt)R', and their parent anions, R3M(CO)3CoC(O-)R', where M = Si or Ge.The anions where M = Si, R' = Ph decompose thermally into the corresponding benzoylsilanes; when the silicon atom is chiral (R3 = MePh-1-Np) optically active R3SiCOPh is obtained with complete retention of configuration.
