Hypervalent hydridosilicates: synthesis, structure and hydride bridging
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A range of hydridosilicate anions has been prepared and characterised by spectroscopic, structural and computational methods. The general approach involved reaction of KH with a neutral silane precursor in the presence of [18]crown-6. In this manner, [K([18]crown-6)]+ salts of [Ph3SiH2](-) (1), [Ph3SiF2](-) (9), and [(p-FC6H4)3SiHF](-)/[(p-FC6H4)3SiH2](-) (12) were stabilised and characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. In each case, the anion adopts a trigonal bipyramidal (TBP) geometry with three equatorial phenyl groups eclipsing the axial Si-H/Si-F bonds. The Si-H[dot dot dot]K distances, along with DFT calculations on 1, indicate an electrostatic interaction that does not dictate the geometry adopted by the anion. A [H2SiOiPr3](-) salt (7) has also been crystallised in the same way; X-ray diffraction shows in this case a distorted TBP array with axial hydride ligands, and both Si-H[...]K and Si-O[...]K interactions. 1H NMR exchange experiments show 1 to undergo facile hydride exchange with Ph3SiH. Compound 1 acts as a good hydride transfer reagent to a variety of substrates, but its high reactivity often results in redistribution and other side reactions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
