F. Lunzer et al., Group IV metallocene bis(trimethylsilyl)acetylene complexes as catalysts in the dehydrocoupling polymerization of 1,2-disubstituted hydrodisilanes, MONATS CHEM, 130(1), 1999, pp. 215-219
The catalytic activities of five bis(trimethylsilyl)acetylene complexes of
group TV metallocenes in the dehydrocoupling reaction of various 1,2-disubs
tituted hydrodisilanes were investigated. The reactions were monitored by G
C/MS analysis in the early stages, and the polymers were characterized by N
MR spectroscopy and gel permeation chromatography.
