Amino chloro stannylenes have been prepared in situ using two different procedures: (1) reaction of an amine hydrochloride with Sn[N(TMS)2]2 and (2) reaction of a tin(II) amide with tin(II) chloride. These reagents are useful for the conversion of primary, α,β-unsaturated, or aromatic esters to amides.
