Intramolecular interactions in crystals of tris(2,6-diisopropylphenoxy)silanethiol and its sodium salts.
Hydrolytically stable silanethiol tris(2,6-diisopropylphenoxy)silanethiol (TDST) has been synthesized and reacted with sodium metal. In solid state TDST exhibits π-interactions between the S-H unit and the π-system of the arene, replaced by cation-π interactions in its sodium salts. The interactions are documented by crystal structures and FT-IR spectroscopy.
