Abstract
Tetra-tert-butyldisilene 3 and di-tert-butylsilylene 2, formed by photolysis of the cyclotrisilane 1, react with the CC double bonds of alkenes and 1,3-dienes to provide the silirane 4 together with the 1,2-disilacyclobutane 5 and the 2-vinylsiliranes 6 and 7; the molecular structure of the [2 + 2] cycloaddition product 5, formed by the reaction of 3 with ortho-methylstyrene, was determined by X-ray crystallography.Keywords
