Conclusions
-
1.
The He-1 photoelectron spectra of a number of (alkylthiomethyl)trimethoxysilanes with the formula RSCH2Si(OMe)3 (R=Me, Et, Pr, Bu, Me2CHCH2, Me3C) have been studied. The highest two MOs in the molecules of these compounds are close in energy, but differ strongly in nature. The first of them consists mainly of a sulfur p AO and is perpendicular to the plane of the CSC group, and the other one includes s and p AOs of the S atom with a similar contribution from the S C and Si-C bonds and is destabilized by the interaction of the n electrons of the. S and O atoms through the intermediate bonds.

2.
In the molecule of (tert-butylthiomethyl)trimethoxysilane the fraction of the cis conformations is apparently reduced owing to the steric interaction.
-
3.
The values of the Kabachnik and Taft induction constants of the CH2Si(OMe)3 group have been determined from the spectroscopic characteristic (ai=−1.30 and σ* −0,25).
