Zur Synthese und Funktionalisierung neuer Poly[(silylen)‐2,5‐thiophene]

Treatment of 2,5‐dilithiothiophene with (dimethylamino) methylsilylbis(triflates) gave poly[(dimethylamino‐silylene)‐2,5‐thiophene] 4 in high yield. The amino–silyl bond was cleaved selectively by triflic acid leading to triflate substituted poly[(silylene)‐2,5‐thiophene] 5 . Conversions of this polymers with nucleophiles gave other functionalized derivatives 6 – 9 . Hydrosilylation reaction between silicon–vinyl and silicon–hydrogen derivatives results in polymer networks which may serve as interesting preceramic materials. The structures of the polymers were proven by NMR spectroscopy (²⁹Si, ¹³C, ¹H).
