Abstract

Silylenes, corresponding to carbenes in organic chemistry, are important intermediates in photochemical, thermal, and metalreduction reactions of organosilicon compounds. 1 Among various substituted silylenes, there are several reports of halosilylenes. In most cases, halosilylenes have been generated in the gaseous state by thermolysis reactions and identified by trapping reactions2 or observed as short-lived species by spectroscopic ...
