Abstract
Trimethyl({tris[(phenylsulfanyl)methyl]silyl}methoxy)silane (3), C26H32OS3Si, is a new ligand for transition-metal coordination chemistry derived from 3-bromo-2,2-bis(bromomethyl)propan-1-ol (1), C5H9Br3O, through silylation and following exchange of bromine groups with NaSPh. Silylated thioether ligand 3 crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group C2/c. Bromomethylalcohol 1 crystallizes in the space group P\overline{1} in the triclinic crystal system with four molecules in the asymmetric unit. Analysis of the Hirshfeld surface shows structure-defining interactions for bromomethylalcohol 1, resulting in intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the hydroxyl groups along the a-axis direction.
