title: Tris(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methylsilane.
abstract: The structure consists of discrete molecules of tris-(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methylsilane, C16H24N6Si, that exhibit distorted tetrahedral SiN(pyrazole)3C geometry about the Si atom. The Si and methyl C atoms lie on threefold axes. The C--Si--N and N--Si--N bond angles are 111.3 (2) and 107.5 (2) degrees, respectively, while the Si--N bond length is 1.745 (5) A. The present work provides the first reported structure containing an Si--N(pyrazole) linkage.
