The molecule in the structure of the title compound, C34H60Si4, lies on a twofold rotation axis that passes through the two Si atoms, resulting in a planar cyclo-tetra-silane ring. The dihedral angle between the cyclo-tetra-silane ring and the phenyl ring is 68.20 (5)°. The Si-Si bonds [2.4404 (8) and 2.4576 (8) Å] are longer than a standard Si-Si bond (2.34 Å) and the C-Si-C bond angle [97.07 (14)°] of the phenyl-substituted Si atom is smaller than the tetra-hedral bond angle (109.5°). These long bonds and small bond angle are favorable for reducing the steric hindrance among the bulky substituents.
标题化合物C34H60Si4的结构中的分子位于一条穿过两个硅原子的二重旋转轴上,形成一个平面环四硅烷环。环四硅烷环与苯环之间的二面角为68.20 (5)°。硅-硅键[2.4404 (8) 和2.4576 (8) Å] 比标准硅-硅键(2.34 Å)长,且苯基取代硅原子的C-Si-C键角[97.07 (14)°] 小于四面体键角(109.5°)。这些长键和小键角有利于减少庞大取代基之间的空间位阻。
