Ms. Singh et Pk. Singh, A new class of organosilicon(IV) compounds based upon tetradentate (N2O2) chelating ligand, MAIN GR MET, 23(3), 2000, pp. 183-188
Complexes of tri-, di- and mono-organosilicon(IV) chlorides with the Schiff
base N,N'- ethylenebis (salicylideneimine) have been prepared and characte
rized by elemental analyses and spectroscopic (IR, H-1, C-13 and Si-29 NMR)
studies. Molecular weight determination in chloroform reveals the monomeri
c nature of these complexes. These data support the binding of oxygen to si
licon(IV) with an octahedral geometry.
