Abstract

Abstract CF 3 SiH 3 (I) has been obtained in∼ 90% yield from the reaction of CF 3 SiF 3 or CF 3 SiF 2 I with LiAlH 4 in dibutyl ether at− 78.(I) has been characterized by its 1 H, 19 F, 13 C and 29 Si NMR-, mass-, IR-and Raman spectra. It is thermally stable up to 180 and not attacked by O 2, H 2 O and H 3 PO 4, but cleaved by aqueous alkali. From a rovibrational analysis, B o= 0.09769 (2) cm− 1 is deduced, and a long SiC bond, 1.95 (1) Å, is predicted.
