Metallacyclosilanes of Calcium, Yttrium, and Iron.

ABSTRACT: Utilizing a choice of α,ω-oligosilanylene diides, it is possible to synthesize a number of heterocyclosilanes with heteroelements of calcium, yttrium, and iron by metathesis reactions with respective metal halides CaI₂, YCl₃, and FeBr₂. ²⁹Si NMR spectroscopic analysis of the calcacyclosilanes suggests that these compounds retain a strong oligosilanylene dianion character, which is more pronounced than in the analogous magnesacyclosilanes. As the electronegativity of calcium lies between potassium and magnesium, silyl calcium reagents should be considered as building blocks with an attractive reactivity profile. Reaction of a 1,4-oligosilanylene diide with YCl₃ gave the five-membered yttracyclosilane as an ate-complex with two chlorides
