FIELD OF INVENTION This invention relates to certain novel silanes and to the synthesis of silylated and N-silylated organic compounds therewith. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Typical procedures for the synthesis of silylated and N-silylated bis and mono(cyclopentadienyl) and indenyl ligands involve the addition of Cl2Si(CH3)2 during synthesis of monocyclopentadienyl compounds to the lithiated ligand precursor.

Another aspect of the invention is a method for the synthesis of silylated and N-silylated compounds having the Formula (III) Y2Si(R)2 (III) or the Formula (IV) YSi (R2) (IV) I NHRl in which Y is any organic group and in which R and Rl are the same or different organic groups, preferably substituted or unsubstituted aliphatic or aryl groups as defined by definition 5. The invention includes methods for reacting organic alkali metallides having the formula YM, in which Y is any organic group and M is any alkali metal with a silane having the Formula (I) or Formula (II) Wherein the product is a compound having the Formula (III) or Formula (IV).
A first step of such methods includes preparation of an organic alkali metallide. Methods for the preparation of such compounds are known. For example, any compound having a -CH group, preferably acidic, is reacted with an alkali metal alkyl having the formula R3Ni, in which R3 may be any hydrocarbyl group and M may be lithium, potassium or sodium. M may also be a magnesium halide. N-butyl lithium or tert-butyl lithium are preferred RM compounds. The reaction is conducted in a non-interfering solvent, preferably diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran, which may also include or be combined or mixed with a hydrocarbon such as toluene. The reaction mixture contains a desired alkali metallide. In a second step, the alkali metallide product of the first step is optionally but not necessarily isolated from the first step reaction mixture and reacted with a silane having the Formula (I) or the Formula (II). Methods for such isolating such compounds are known. In one aspect of the invention, the compound having -CHgroup is a CS-ring containing compound useful as an olefin polymerization catalyst ligand or as a precursor of such a ligand. Such ligands include but are not limited.to substituted, unsubstituted, mono-, or bis- cyclopentadienyl, indenyl, naphthenyl and antracenyl ligands. These ligands may be hydrogenated. For example, such ligands include cyclopentadienes, bis-cyclopentadienes, indenes, bis-indenes, mono- and poly- alkyl, preferably methyl, substituted cyclopentadienes and indenes, such as tetraethyl cyclopentadiene and 2-methyl indene, 2-methyl-benzo(indene), bis-2-methyl-benzo(indene), dimethyl silane, substituted, unsubstituted and bis-phenanthrene, and cyclopentadienephenanthrene which may be but need not be hydrogenated. Another aspect of the invention may include a method which comprises combining a compound having the formula Q1- (Z) -Q2Li2 and a compound having the formula Rl,SiO3R2 in a non-interfering solvent wherein said compound having the formula Q1-(Z)-Q2Li reacts with the compound having the formula RljSi03R2 to produce a compound having the formula RlsSiQ1 (Z ) =Q2SiRls or RisSiQl where Q1=indene or RlsSiQ2 where Q2=cyclopentadiene wherein R1 and Q1 and Q2 each have 1 to 10 carbon atoms are the same or different aryl, preferably phenyl, and R2 are identical or different alkyl groups. Specifically, Q1 and Q2 (i) may be the same or different;(ii) are preferably unsubstituted;(iii) may be substituted at any position not occupied by linkage to (Z)= or to lithium and (iv) Z is a linking group, preferably (CH2)y in which y is 1 to 6 or Si (RZ) wherein R2 is a 1 to 6 carbon atom alkyl group. Useful Q1 and QZ substituents include one to six carbon atom alkyl, preferably methyl, groups; halogens, preferably chorine, fluorine or bromine, and substituents which form rings with two Q1 or Q2 carbon atoms.
Compounds having the formula Ql(Z) Q2Li are prepared in known manner by reacting a compound of formula Q1(Z)x Q2 with an alkyl lithium compound, preferably n-butyl or t-butyl lithium in a non-interfering solvent, preferably ether or tetrahydrofuran. The lithiation reaction is appropriately conducted at a temperature of from about -80°C to about 40°C. The reaction mixture which contains lithiated Ql-(X)= Q2 may be combined directly with Rl3SiO3SR2 to yield Rl3SiQl (X) X Q2SiR3. The reaction proceeds to substantial completion in about thirty minutes at room temperature. See Example 8. Alternatively, the lithium salt may be isolated prior to reaction with R'jSi03SR2. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The Formula (I) silanes may be prepared by reacting a compound of the formula R1S03H, in which Rl is any straight or branched chain alkyl group preferably having one to eight carbon atoms, with a compound of the formula X2SiQ2, in which X and Q are as defined.

Also in this example, 2-methylcyclopentadiene may be replaced by 3-methyl-2-ethyl-cyclopentadiene to provide a quantitative yield of 3-methyl-2-ethyl-cyclopentadienyl (t-butyl amido) dimethylsilane. Also in this example, t-BuNH (Tf0) Si (Me) 2 may be used with similar results. This example illustrates a method in which a type IIsilane is added directly to the reaction mixture in which an alkali metallide is formed.

After the solution was stirred for one hour at room temperature, the solution was cooled (-10°C) and Me2Si(Ms0)NH(t-Bu) (a type II silane) was added in one portion, resulting in a 20°C exotherm. After one hour at room temperature, the solution was filtered through Celite, the residual solid LiOMs was washed With ether (1.5 L), and the filtrate was reduced to a yellow oil that contained >98~pure 2-methylindenyl(t-butylamido) dimethylsilane (1H NMR) in quantitative yield.

Also, in this example, 2-methylindene may be replaced with bromobenzene to obtain a quantitative yield of the expected phenyl-t-butylamido dimethylsilane. Pret~aration of bis(2-methyl-4 5-benzoindenyl) dimethylsilane (ectuation 8) A 2L flask charged with 2-methyl-4,5-benzo(indene) (73 g, 405 mmol) and ether (500 mL) was cooled to -10°C and treated with n-BuLi (1.6 M, 255 mL, 405 mmol).

After one hour at room temperature, the white slurry was treated with CH2C12 (500 mL), and the solution was filtered through Celite into a 5L flask. The solids were washed with CHZC12 (500 mL), and the filtrate was evacuated to dryness. The white solid residue was treated with ether (200 mL), and the solvent was evacuated so that most of the residual CH2C12 was removed. The solid was then treated with ether (1 L) and triturated for thirty minutes before filtering and washing the white solid with ether (200 mL). Yields vary from 20-50$.

A 1 L flask was charged with bis(2-methyl-4,5-benzoindenyl) dimethylsilane (48 g, 115 mmol), toluene (480 mL) , and ether (20 g, 270 m~nol) . The solution was cooled (-10°C) and then treated with BuLi (1.6 M, 145 mL, 230 mmol). After the tanned-colored heterogeneous solution was stirred at room temperature for two hours, the solution was cooled (-20°C) and treated with ZrCl, (27 g, 115 mmol). By the time the solution had warmed to -10°C, a bright yellow solution had resulted. After the yellow solution was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours, the solution was filtered, and the yellow solid was washed with toluene until the filtrate was pale yellow. The yellow filter cake was treated with an equal mass of Celite, the solids were slurried in dry CH2C12, and the product was extracted with CH2C12 through a layer of Celite into a 12 Lflask that contained toluene (1 L); the extraction was WO 00/47587 PCTIUSOOl02795 stopped when the yellow color of the filtrate had turned translucent. The CHZCI2 solvent was evaporated to give a toluene-slurry of yellow crystals.

In this reaction, any compound of Formula (II), page 4, may be used instead of t-butyl NHMsOSiMe2. Compounds which have the corresponding R groups instead of t-butyl are produced. In this example, CF3SO,Si (CH3) 2NH t-butyl may be used instead of CH3SO3SI (CH3) 2NH t-butyl . This example illustrates the preparation of n-silylated indenes of formula si (Q) 2 z in which Rl, Q and Z are the same or different one to eight carbon atom alkyl groups, preferably methyl groups, with the exception that Z is preferably a t-butyl group. A 5 L flask charged with the an indene of formula II(1548, 0.906 mol) and ether (1500g) was cooled (-20°C) and treated with n-BuLi (1.6M, 0.906 mol, 0.566 L). After the solution which contained the lithium salt of the indene was allowed to warm to room temperature for one hour, the solution was cooled (-20°C) and then treated with the mesylate O = S = O I CH3 - Sl - CH3 I NH It-butyl.
