Abstract

Bis(silyl)alkylbenzenes such as bis(1-sila-sec-butyl)benzene (1) and 2-phenyl-1,3-disilapropane (2) were prepared in high yields by reduction of the corresponding chlorosilanes with LiAlH4. The dehydropolymerization of 1 and 2 was carried out with group 4 metallocene complexes generated in situ from Cp2MCl2/Red-Al and Cp2MCl2/n-BuLi (M=Ti, Hf), producing two phases of polymers. The TGA residue yields of the insoluble polymers were in the range of 64-74%. The molecular weights of the soluble polymers produced ranged from 700 to 5000 (Mw vs polystyrene) and from 500 to 900 (Mn vs polystyrene). The dehydropolymerization of 1 and 2 seemed to initially produce a low-molecular-weight polymer, which then underwent an extensive cross-linking reaction of backbone Si-H bonds, leading to an insoluble polymer.
