Electronic structure of the six-membered N-heterocyclic carbene, silylene, germylene, and stannylene having an exocyclic double bond at the C3 carbon atom as well as the relative reactivity of the lone-pair on the divalent group 14 element and the exocyclic double bond have been studied at the BP86 level of theory with a TZVPP basis set. The geometrical parameters, NiCS values, and NBO population analysis indicate that these molecules can be best described as the localized structure 1X(a), where a trans-butadiene (C1-C2-C3-C4) unit is connected with diaminocarbene (N1-X-N2) via N-atoms having a little contribution from the delocalized structure 1X(b). The proton affinity at X is higher than at C4 for 1C, and a reverse trend is observed for the heavier analogues. Hence, the lone pair on a heavier divalent Group 14 element is less reactive than the exocyclic double bond. This is consistent with the argument that, even though the parent six-membered carbene and its heavier analogues are nonaromatic in nature, the controlled and targeted protonation can lead to either the aromatic system 3X having a lone pair on X or the nonaromatic system 2X with readily polarizable C3-C4 pi-bond. The energetics for the reaction with BH3 and W(CO)(6) further suggest that both the lone pair of Group 14 element and the exocyclic double bond can act as Lewis basic positions, although the reaction at one of the Lewis basic positions in 1X does not considerably influence the reactivity at the other. The protonation and adduct formation with BH3 and W(CO)(5) at X lead to nonaromatic systems whereas similar reactions at C4 lead to aromatic systems due to pi-bond polarization at C3-C4. The degree of polarization of the C3-C4 pi-bond is maximum in the protonated adduct and reduces in the complexes formed with BH3 and W(CO)(5).
