18. The O⋯Si⋯O angles are defined by pairs of pyridone O atoms and the Si core of tecton 1. Comparison of O⋯Si⋯O angles rather than C-Si-C angles takes into account the distortion of Si-C-C angles and other effects as well. Table 1 shows the value of the two O⋯Si⋯O angles that have bisectors parallel to the c axis. See the Supporting Information for further discussion.
