Six 1,2,5,6-tetrasilacycloocta-3,7-diynes were synthesized by the reaction of the di-Grignard reagents of 1,2-diethynyldisilaneswith 1,2-dichlorodisilanes. The reaction of the di-Grignard reagent of 1,2-diethynyl-l,2-dimethyldiphenyldisilanewith 1,2-dichloro-l,2-dimethyldiphenyldisilanegave two isomers, r-l,t-2,t-5,c-6-tetramethyl-1,2,5,6-tetraphenyl-l,2,5,6-tetrasilacycloocta-3,7-diyne (cis-trans-lb) and rl,t-2,c-5,t-6-tetramethyl-1,2,5,6-tetraphenyl-l,2,5,6-tetrasilacycloocta-3,7-diyne (all-trans-lb)whose configuratio_nswere determined by an X-ray diffraction study. cis-trans-lb crystallizes in the trigonal space group R3 with cell dimensions a = b = 21.671 (6) A, c = 16.639 (2) A, a = = 90°, y = 120°, V = 6557 (3) A3, and.Ddd = 1.167 Mg/m3 (2= 9), while all-trans-lb crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2Ja with cell dimensions a = 18.308 (6) A, b = 11.339 (3) A, c = 15.352 (4) A, a = y = 90°, = 94.50 (2)O, V = 3186 (2) A3, and Dcdcd = 1.106 Mg/m3 (2= 4). Treatment of 1,2,5,6-tetrasilacycloocta-3,7-diynes with a catalytic amount of n-butyllithiumin THF at room temperature afforded poly[(disilany1ene)ethynylenesl with high molecular weights. The reaction of poly[(1,2-dimethyldiphenyldisilanylene)ethynylene]( I C ) , whose molecular weight was determined to be 77 900, with a catalytic amount of n-butyllithium in THF at room temperature resulted in depolymerization of the starting polymer to give oligomers with M, = 1500. Treatment of poly[(tetraethyldisilany1ene)ethynylenel(Sc) with a catalyticamount of n-butyllithium under the same conditions led to redistribution to give the polymer which showed a very broad molecular weight distribution. Similarly,poly[(1,2-di-n-hexyldimethyldisilanylene)ethynylene] underwent redistribution in the presence of a trace of n-butyllithium, but the rate of the reaction was determined to be slow. Irradiation of a benzene solution of the poly[(disilany1ene)ethynylenesl with a low-pressure mercury lamp resulted in homolytic scission of silicon4icon bonds to give photodegradation products with low molecular weights. Irradiation of the f i b s prepared from the polymers in air also led to the scission of the siliconailicon bonds in the polymer backbone to give the products which have silanol and siloxy groups. Treatment of the films prepared from I C , 5c, and poly[(1,2-diethyldimethyldisilanylene)ethynylene]with antimony pentafluoride vapor afforded conducting films.

Introduction We have demonstrated that organosilicon polymers in which fie alternating arrangement of a &danylene unit and ?r-electronsystem is found in the polymer backbone we photoactive and show conducting properties when the polymers are doped by exposure to antimony pentafluoride vapor. Alternating polymers containing the disilanylene-?relectron system can readily be accomplished by the sodium condensation reaction of compounds involving two chlorosily1 groups attached to the ?r-electron system.24 However, the major problem of this method is, the lack of reproducibility for the product yields and molecular weights of the resulting polymers. In an attempt to develop a method that does not involve alkali-metal condensation for the preparation of the alternating copolymers, we discovered that 1,2,5,6-tetrasilacycloocta3,7-diynes undergo anionic ring-opening polymerization (1) (a) Hiroshima University.

to give poly[ (disilany1ene)ethynylenesl in the presence of a catalytic amount of n-butyllithium in THF. We now wish to report in detail the synthesis and ring-opening polymerization of 1,2,5,6-tetrasilacycloocta-3,7-diynes and Some Properties of the resulting Poly[ (disi1anylene)-

Results and Discussion Synthesis. The first strained eight-membered cyclic (disilanylene)ethynylene, octamethyl-1,2,5,6-tetrasilacycloocta-3,7-diyne has been synthesized by Sakurai and his co-workers from the thermal and photochemical ring contraction of permethylated 1,2,3,6,7-pentasilacyclonona-4,8-diyne.I Recently, Iwahara and West have reported the preparation of three tetrasilacyclooctadiyne derivatives, 1,1,2,2,5,5,6,6-octamethyl-, 1,1,2,2,5,5,6,6octa-n-butyl-, and 1,2,5,6-tetra-n-butyltetramethyl1,2,5,6-tetrasilacycloocta-3,7-diyne in high yields? Their method involves the reaction of the di-Grignard reagents prepared from 1,2-diethynyldisilanesand ethylmagnesium bromide with 1,2-dichlorodisilanes. We have also found that the tetrasilacyclooctadiynescan readily be prepared by the reaction of the di-Grignard reagents of 1,2-diethynyldisilanes with 1,2-di~hlorodisilanes.~~ (7) Sakurai, H.; Nakadaira, A.; Hosomi, A.; Eriyama, Y.; Kabuto, C.

'H The starting 1,2-diethynyldisilanes were synthesized by and 13CNMR spectra of 2b-4b appear as if only one isomer is present in the isolated product (see Experimental the reaction of ethynylmagnesiumbromide obtained from ethylmagnesium bromide and acetylene in THF, with Section).
