Abstract
(trans-1,2,2,3,4,4-Hexa-tert-butyl-1,3-cyclotetrasilanediyl)dipotassium (3) was synthesized by the reduction of trans-1,3-dibromo-1,2,2,3,4,4-hexa-tert-butylcyclotetrasilane (2) with potassium. The X-ray crystallographic analysis of the 3-benzene complex showed a novel supramolecular structure, in which 3 and benzene are stacked alternatively to form an infinite 1-D structure.
