Abstract

The electronic configuration of divalent Si compounds with a s lone pair and an empty p orbital is similar to that of trivalent borane if a B-H bond is eguated to the lone pair on Si. Following this analogy two novel compounds,:Si(μ-CH)(μ-H)Si:, 24, and:Si(μ-CH)2Si:, 26, are proposed. The energetics and geometries of the two compounds and their isomers (24, 26-39, and 41-65) are studied by use of the MNDO and 3-21G* methods.
