✦ Synopsis
Trimethylsilyl)methyl]sodium [NaCH 2 SiMe 3 ] (1) was prepared by a metathesis reaction of [(trimethylsilyl)methyl]lithium [LiCH 2 SiMe 3 ] with sodium tert-butoxide in n-hexane. Polydentate donors such as N,N,NЈ,NЈ-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) and N,N,NЈ,NЈЈ,NЈЈ-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA) form n-hexane-soluble complexes of 1 and the potassium congener [KCH 2 SiMe 3 ] (2). The crystal structures of the polymers [(TMEDA)NaCH 2 -SiMe 3 ] (1a) and [(PMDETA)KCH 2 SiMe 3 ] (2a) were determined as infinite helical chains exhibiting 3 1 or 3 2 screw-axis
