Synthesis and reactivity of monomeric magnesium and zinc silyl compounds To(M)M-Si(SiHMe2)(3) and To(M)M-Si(SiMe3)(3) are described (To(M) = tris(4,4-dimethyl-2-oxazolinyl)phenylborate). The magnesium compounds react slowly with water and air, while the zinc compounds are inert. With CO2, To(M)Mg-Si(SiHMe2)(3) provides To(M)MgO(2)CSi(SiHMe2)(3) through CO2 insertion, whereas To(M)Zn-Si(SiHMe2)(3) affords To(M)ZnOCHO.
