Abstract

Si5(CH3)9(Si(CH3)2)5 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of ten dimethylsilane molecules and two Si5(CH3)9 clusters. In each Si5(CH3)9 cluster, there are five inequivalent Si sites. In the first Si site, Si is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Si and one C atom. The Si–Si bond length is 2.48 Å. The Si–C bond length is 1.92 Å. In the second Si site, Si is bonded to four Si atoms to form SiSi4 tetrahedra that share corners with nine CSiH3 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Si–Si bond distances ranging from 2.39–2.47 Å. In the third Si site, Si is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Si and two C atoms. There is one shorter (1.89 Å) and one longer (1.91 Å) Si–C bond length. In the fourth Si site, Si is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Si and three C atoms. All Si–C bond lengths are 1.89 Å. In the fifth Si site, Si is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Si and three C atoms. There is one shorter (1.89 Å) and two longer (1.90 Å) Si–C bond length. There are nine inequivalent C sites. In the first C site, C is bonded to one Si and three H atoms to form CSiH3 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one SiSi4 tetrahedra. All C–H bond lengths are 1.10 Å.
