Abstract
A useful synthetic procedure for the incorporation of the potentially multidentate monoanionic 1-[C6H2(CH2NMe2)2-3,5]- (=NCN) and 1-[C6H3(CH2NMe2)-4]- (=CN) ligands via the para-position on the periphery of carbosilane (CS) dendrimers has been developed. Lithiation of suitable brominated precursors [C6H3(CH2NMe2)2-3,5-Br-1], 1, and [C6H4(CH2NMe2)-4-Br-1], 2, in Et2O at -78 C with 2 equiv of
