Symmetric Assembly of a Sterically Encumbered Allyl Complex: Mechanochemical and Solution Synthesis of the Tris(allyl)beryllate, K[BeA′3] (A′ = 1,3-(SiMe3)2C3H3)

The ball milling of beryllium chloride with two equivalents of the potassium salt of bis(1,3-trimethylsilyl)allyl anion, K[A′] (A′ = [1,3-(SiMe3)2C3H3]), produces the tris(allyl)beryllate K[BeA’3] (1) rather than the expected neutral BeA’2. The same product is obtained from reaction in hexanes; in c...
