Abstract: High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide Reactions of the amidinato-silylene chloride PhC( t BuN) 2 SiCl ( 1 ) with imidazole-based dithione dimer 2, lithium dithiolene radical 3, and dithiolate dimer 4 result in the synthesis of a series of silicon complexes 5 – 7, respectively, containing both amidinato and dithiolene ligands. 7 is the first structurally characterized silicon(II) dithiolene complex. The structural and bonding characteristics of 5 – 7 have been probed by both experimental and theoretical methods.
