Abstract
The thermally unstable compounds SiCl3X•N(CH3)3 and SiCl3X•N(CD3)3 where X = H, F, Br, or I are studied at −196 °C by infrared and Raman spectroscopy. The data are compatible with molecular five coordinate compounds having a trigonal bipyramidal stereochemistry with the ligand trimethylamine always in the axial position. Using the vibrational data and normal coordinate analyses in both the Cs and C3v configurations, X is suggested to be equatorial for H and F and axial for Br and I. The factors influencing the position of X in the compounds are discussed.
