Vv. Penkovsky et Yg. Shermolovitch, QUANTUM-CHEMICAL STUDY ON FORMATION OF THIONITROSO COMPOUNDS FROM N-CHLORO-SULFENYL-N-TRIMETHYLSILYL AMINES, Phosphorus, sulfur and silicon and the related elements, 80(1-4), 1993, pp. 255-258
The MNDO quantum-chemical calculations revealed that the N-chlorosulfe
nyl-N-trimethylsilyl amine decomposition scheme may be described as th
e S-Cl bond weakening and the subsequent trimethylsilyl group transfer
to the chlorine atom, with the activation barrier of 260-294 kJ/mol.
