Abstract
By providing theoretical insight into the nature of triple bonding between heavier Group 14 elements, the electronic and steric effects of substituent s on silicon-silicon triple bonds are investigated to make disilynes synthe tically accessible as stable compounds. Synthetic targets worthy of experim ental testing are predicted for RSi=SiR. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
