Résumé

The isolation and characterization of the first silicon analogue of the aromatic cyclobutadiene dication is reported. The aromatic 2π-electron tetrasilacyclobutadiene dication in [(L^PhSi)₄](BPh₄)₂ (L^Ph = PhC(NtBu)₂) has been obtained in a simple and straightforward synthesis, from [L^PhSiCl], [L^PhSiSiL^Ph] and NaBPh₄, and fully characterized. The molecular structure reveals a four-membered Si₄-dication in an almost perfect square-planar geometry. Theoretical calculations support the interpretation of the title compound as a classical 2π-aromatic species with a singlet ground state.
