Amidinate- and Dithiolene-Based Silicon Complexes.

ABSTRACT: Reactions of the amidinato-silylene chloride PhC( ^t BuN)₂SiCl (1) with imidazole-based dithione dimer 2, lithium dithiolene radical 3, and dithiolate dimer 4 result in the synthesis of a series of silicon complexes 5-7, respectively, containing both amidinato and dithiolene ligands. 7 is the first structurally characterized silicon(II) dithiolene complex. The structural and bonding characteristics of 5-7 have been probed by both experimental and theoretical methods.
