N-H cleavage vs. Werner complex formation: reactivity of cationic group 14 tetrelenes towards amines

β-Diketiminate ligands featuring backbone NMe2 groups have been exploited to access a series of two-coordinate cations of the type [(N-nacnac)E]+ (E = Si, Ge, Sn), whose reactivity towards N-H bonds has been investigated. While the heavier group 14 systems react via simple adduct formation, N-H oxid...
