Popis: Electrochemical oxidation of 1-R-substituted silatranes 1 (R = Me, vinyl, (CH2)2CN, CH2Ph, CH2(C10H7), Ph, C6H4Me, p-Cl-C6H4, Cl)—classical representatives of pentacoordinated silicon compounds—and the formation of their short living cation radicals upon reversible or quasi-reversible one-electron withdrawal were studied by means of cyclic and square-wave voltammetry, faradaic impedance spectroscopy and real-time temperature-dependent EPR spectroelectrochemistry supported by DFT B3PW91/6-311++G(d,p) (C-PCM, acetonitrile) calculations. The main reaction responsible for the decay of 1+• is shown to be their deprotonation, and ways of increasing the stability of these species are proposed.
