The electronic structure of compounds with main-group elements in unusual oxidation states or coordination environments has inspired research during recent decades. Differences between the second-row elements and their heavier congeners have been illustrated with many examples, such as the intensively studied differences between alkenes and alkynes compared with their heavier trans-bent analogues.[1] Although the chemistry of carbon belongs to the oldest and most studied fields in chemistry, new bonding modes and concepts are still being established. Some recent examples are the introduction of quadruple bonding in diatomic C2[2] or divalent carbon (0) in carbodiphosphoranes (carbones).[3] This research is often driven by the unique reactivity of these compounds, which is based on the unusual electronic structure. As such, bond activation reactions, a research field long limited to transition-metal complexes, has started to evolve.[4] One of the long indisputable concepts in the chemistry of carbon compounds is that of the tetrahedral arrangement of fourcoordinate carbon, as manifested in van t Hoff s proposal.[5] However, this rule has been challenged, firstly, by computation by Schleyer and co-workers predicting the stabilization of planar tetracoordinate carbon by electropositive substituents.[6] Finally, this prediction was verified experimentally in 2010 by Liddle and co-workers, who succeeded in the isolation of a compound with such a planar four-coordinate carbon in the bis (phosphonium)-stabilized methandiide I.[7, 8] However, no other known methandiide, such as II, although limited in number, has been shown to feature this planar carbon conformation.[9, 10, 11] This provokes the question, of whether planarization is solely the result of geometric restrictions caused by the coordinating side arms or whether it results from an unknown bonding motif of carbon. To address this question, we set out to prepare new dilithio methandiides. Due to their extremely limited accessibility, investigations have so far concentrated on, but are not limited to, the readily available bis (phosphonium)-substituted compounds.[12] To clarify the influence of the Li coordination by intramolecular donor functions, further substituents at the dimetallated carbon have to be examined.[13] Herein, we describe the synthesis and structure of a sulfonyl-substituted geminal dianion and discuss its electronic structure with respect to the planarization of the four-coordinate carbon atom.
