The synthesis of a chloro-functionalized six-membered cyclosilazane (Si5N) is reported. Subsequent reductive polymerizations yielded low molecular weight polysilazanes. 1H and 29Si NMR characterization suggest the identity of the reducing metal influences the polysilazane structure. Optical characterization is consistent with extended σ-conjugation upon polymerization.
