Spektroskopische Untersuchungen zu Substituenteneffekten in Silylmethylsilanen

Spectroscopic Investigations on Substituent Effects in Silylmethylsilanes The silanes Me_3?n(Me₃SiCH₂)_nSiH (n = 1–3), (RMe₂SiCH₂)₃SiH (R = n-Bu, n-Pr, Et, PhCH₂, Ph) and Me₃ElCH₂SiMe₂H (El = Ge, Sn) were prepared. The frequencies of the Si? H stretching vibration, the ²⁹Si? ¹H coupling constants and the ²⁹Si n.m.r. chemical shifts were measured. The ?(SiH) and J(²⁹Si? ¹H) values in the silanes Me_3?n(Me₃SiCH₂)_nSiH depend on the number of trimethylsilymethyl groups. There is hardly an influence of the substituents R on these values in the silanes (RMe₂SiCH₂)₃SiH. The frequencies of the Si? H stretching vibrations in the silanes Me₃ElCH₂SiMe₂H (El = Si, Ge, Sn) show the order Si?Ge > Sn. The ₂₉Si n.m.r. chemical shifts of the Si(H) signals are approximately equal in the silanes Me_3?n(Me₃SiCH₂)_nSiH and (RMe₂SiCH₂)₃SiH.
