The structure of the title compound [systematic name: 8-butyl-8-(2-methyl-1H-inden-1-yl)-8-silatri­cyclo­[7.4.0.02,3]trideca-1(13),2,4,6,9,11-hexa­ene], C26H26Si, at 110 K has ortho­rhom­bic (Pbca) symmetry. In the mol­ecule, the butyl group displays an extended conformation with the C—C—C—C torsion angle of 176.8 (2)°. The dihedral angle between the biphenyl group and the indole group is 60.04 (2)°. The structure exhibits a weak intra­molecular C—H⋯π inter­action.

Structure description

Benzannulated siloles are distinguish from their all-carbon analogues by their unique electronic structure (Yamaguchi & Tamao, 2005[Yamaguchi, S. & Tamao, K. (2005). Chem. Lett. 34, 2-7.]), and so are valuable building blocks for π-conjugated polymers. In the title mol­ecule (Fig. 1[link]), the butyl group displays an extended conformation with the C23—C24—C25—C26 torsion angle of 176.8 (2)°. All bond lengths are normal. The structure contains an intra­molecular C—H⋯π inter­action (Table 1[link]).

Synthesis and crystallization

This compound was obtained via treatment of 5,5-di­chloro-5H-dibenzo[b,d]silole (Liu et al., 2002[Liu, Y., Stringfellow, T. C., Ballweg, D., Guzei, I. A. & West, R. (2002). J. Am. Chem. Soc. 124, 49-57.]) with 1 equivalent of lithium salt of 2-methyl-1H-indene in THF followed by 1 equivalent of 2.5 M butyl­lithium in hexa­nes. Single crystals suitable for X-ray crystal structure analysis were grown from an n-hexane solution at 243 K.

Special details top

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.
