1,1,4,4-Tetra-tert-butyl-1,4-dichloro-2,2,3,3-tetra-phenyl-tetra-silane.


ABSTRACT: The title compound, C(40)H(56)Cl(2)Si(4), was synthesized by the coupling of 1,1-di-tert-butyl-1,2-dichloro-2,2-diphenyl-disilane with lithium. The asymmetric unit contains one half-mol-ecule, which is completed by an inversion centre. In the mol-ecule, the tetra-silane skeleton adopts a perfect anti conformation and the Si-Si bonds [2.4355?(5) and 2.4328?(7)?Å] are longer than the standard Si-Si bond length (2.34?Å). The Si-Si-Si angle [116.09?(2)°] is larger than the tetra-hedral bond angle (109.5°). These long bond lengths and the wide angle are favorable for reducing the steric hindrance among the tert-butyl and the phenyl groups. The dihedral angle between the phenyl rings in the asymmetric unit is 37.36?(8)°.
