The reaction of an NHC‐stabilized silole silylene ( 1 , 1‐silacyclopentadienylidene) with one equivalent of internal acetylenes resulted in the formation of NHC‐stabilized 1‐silabicyclo[3.2.0]hepta‐1,3,6‐trienes, which subsequently reacted with one equivalent of the acetylene to yield an aryl‐substituted 1,1′‐spirobisilole (SBS). The SBSs can also be prepared by reaction of the NHC‐stabilized silole silylene 1 with two equivalents of the acetylenes in good yields. The electronic structures of these SBSs have been studied by UV/Vis and emission spectroscopy, as well as DFT calculations.
