“…37,38 Additionally, BHCs were recently used to design porous organic molecules (POMs) 39 and stabilize planar tetracoordinate silicon (ptSi). 40 Inspired by the recent work reported by Li et al, who found that SiH 2 can stabilize CN bond to produce 1-aza-2,4-disilabicyclo[1,1,0]butanes, 41 we anticipated obtaining a family of novel molecules X 2 SiC 2 BR given by the substitution of SiX 2 for the CX 2 unit in BHCs. As such, a type of novel carbene, (Si and B)-heterocyclic carbenes (SiBHCs), was anticipated.…”
