Lett. 1996, 683-684. 1,4-Disilacyclohexanes with no substituent on the ring carbons were often obtained as minor products (∼30%) in the polymerization of diorganovinylsilane via hydrosilylation.

25. -1, T = 296 K; Of the 6363 reflections which were collected, 6032 were unique (Rint = 0.012). The structure was solved by heavy-atom Patterson methods and expanded using Fourier techniques. The non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically. Hydrogen atoms were included but not refined. The final cycle of full-matrix least-squares refinement was based on 4272 observed reflections {I > 3.00σ(I)} and 271 variable parameters and converged with unweighted and weighted agreement factors of R = 0.038 and Rw = 0.034. All calculations were performed using the teXsan crystallographic software package of Molecular Structure Corporation. Crystallographic data have been deposited with Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre as supplementary publication no. CCDC-100558.
