Abstract

A wide variety of aminoalkylsilanes (R3SiCR2NHR') are rearranged to the isomeric alkylaminosilanes (R3SiNR'CHR2) by traces of n-butyllithium. It is shown that an equilibrium exists between the isomeric amide ions (N-) and carbanions (C-) which are involved as intermediates in the rearrangement. The values of the equilibrium constants were determined for several systems and in one case the rates and activation parameters were ...
