Internal fusion : The stable fused tricyclic tetraalkyl disilenes cis ‐ 1 and trans ‐ 1 were synthesized as yellow and red‐purple crystals, respectively (see picture). X‐ray analysis has shown that the geometry around the SiSi bond in trans ‐ 1 is unusually distorted, but is rather normal in cis ‐ 1 . Disilene trans ‐ 1 isomerizes stereospecifically to a tetracyclic isomer by unprecedented addition of a SiSi single bond to a SiSi double bond.
