Abstract

The synthesis and characterization of a new metal-functionalized polysilane is reported. Treatment of poly(methylphenylsilane) with Mo(CO) 3(NC 5H 5) 3 and BF 3,OEt 2 affords the novel copolymer, poly(methylphenylsilane- stat-methyl(η 6-phenyltricarbonylmolybdenum)silane). The synthesis and characterization of the model compounds, (η 6-phenyltricarbonylmolybdenum)trimethylsilane, 1-phenyl-2-(η 6-phenyltricarbonylmolybdenum)tetramethyldisilane and 1,2-di(η 6-phenyltricarbonylmolybdenum)tetramethyldisilane, are used to support a full structural characterization of the copolymer.
