NOVEL ORGANOMETALLIC COMPOUNDS.

Abstract

The compound C5Li4 was synthesized from methyldiacetylene and n-butyllithium. Reaction of C5Li4 with trimethylchlorosilane yielded tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)pentadieneyne, a possible monomer for heat-stable polymers. The first cage polysilane permethyloctasilabicyclo-2,2,2-octane, was prepared. Acetonitrile was lithiated to Li2CHCN, which reacts with chlorosilanes to give novel trisilylynamines. A new anionic rearrangement reaction of alkoxysilanes to silylcarbinol anions was discovered. (Author)
