The microwave spectra of the title compounds, recorded in the 26.5-40.0 GHz region, are characteristic of symmetric top molecules, complicated by internal rotation and accompanied by vibrational satellites attributed to low-frequency skeletal bending modes.For Me3SiCCH, B0 = 1962.163 MHz and relative intensity measurements on the vibrational satellites give a value of 110 +/- 15 cm-1 for the degenerate Si-CC bending mode.Measurements on Me3SiCCD have been made, and the Si-C bond length has been determined as 1.83 +/- 0.01 Angstroem.For Me3SiCCCN, B0 = 711.8646MHz, whilst for Me3Si(CC)2CN, twenty broad-band symmetric-top transitions, from J = 41 to 60, have been observed and a B value of 331 +/- 2 MHz has been estimated.

A catalyzed conversion of terminal alkynes into dimers, trimers, and trisubstituted benzenes has been developed using the actinide amides U[N(SiMe3)2]3 (1) and [(Me3Si)2N]2An[κ2-(N,C)-CH2Si(CH3)N(SiMe3)] (An = U (2), Th (3)) as precatalysts. These complexes allow for preferential product formation according to the identity of the metal and the catalyst loading. While these complexes are known as valuable precursors for the preparation of various actinide complexes, this is the first demonstration of their use as catalysts for C-C bond forming reactions. At high uranium catalyst loading, the cycloaddition of the terminal alkyne is generally preferred, whereas at low loadings, linear oligomerization to form enynes is favored. The thorium metallacycle produces only organic enynes, suggesting the importance of the ability of uranium to form stabilizing interactions with arenes and related π-electron-containing intermediates. Kinetic, spectroscopic, and mechanistic data that inform the nature of the activation and catalytic cycle of these reactions are presented. (Chemical Equation Presented).

The reactions of deuterio-labelled 1-seleno-2-sitylethenes with trimethyl 2-phosphonoacrylate 2 and methyl vinyl ketone 4 in the presence of SnCl4 gave deuterio-substituted cyclopropanes with 1,2-silicon migration. The reaction of deuterio-labe
