Sulfur triimides, S

The tetraimidosulfate anion [S(NtBu)4] , isoelectronic with 804 , is prepared by a methodology similar to that employed for the synthesis of triimidosulfites. The reaction of the sulfur triimide S(N Bu)3 with two equivalents of LiNH Bu produces the solvated monomeric complex [(thf)4Li2S(N Bu)4] (10.21) (Eq. 10.8). The nucleophilic addition of... 

Cycloaddition across the S=N bonds in perfluorosulfinylamines and in sulfur triimides to give cyclodiaza-k -thianes 91 is also observed. 

The formal replacement of a sulfur atom in cyclo-S generates S7NH (6.1), the first member of a series of cyclic sulfur imides that includes the three diimides 1,3-, 1,4-, and 1,5-S6(NH)2 (6.2-6.4), two triimides 1,3,5-and 1,3,6-S5(NH)3, and S4N4H4 (6.5). Isomers of these ring systems containing adjacent NH groups are not known.
