Abstract
Reduction of 1,2,4,5-tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)benzene at a sodium-metal mirror under aprotic conditions and an argon atmosphere yields red ne edles of its solvent-separated radical anion salt. The structure, dete rmined in a 150 K cold N-2 flow, is discussed in comparison with that of the neutral starting molecule, literature examples and results of M NDO calculations.
