Abstract

A series of 2-silyl-and 2-disilanyl-substituted 2-aryl-1, 3-dithiane derivatives were prepared by the reactions of 2-aryl-2-lithio-1, 3-dithianes with the corresponding chlorosilanes. Photolysis of 2-phenyl-2-(pentamethyldisilanyl)-1, 3-dithiane resulted in the intermediary formation of 1, 1-dimethyl-2-phenyl-2-(trimethylsilyl)-1-silaethene.
