The title compound 1, which is of special interest because of the postulated square planar SiO 4 coordination , forms one‐dimensional infinite polymers with tetrahedrally bound silicon. Both ligands act as bridging functions in the catena structure. The polymer contains ten‐membered C 4 O 4 Si 2 rings.
