Abstract

Environmentally friendly, commercially available BiPh₃ reacts with heavy alkaline-earth metals (Ae) and bulky trimethylsilylamines to give the corresponding amides [Ae{N(SiMe₃)(R)}₂(thf)_n] (R = SiMe₃, 2,4,6-Me₃C₆H₂, 2,6- ⁱPr₂C₆H₃) in good yields, providing proof of concept for a general synthetic method.
