| Research Abstract |
It has been found in this study that, in the electroreduction of optically active dichlorosilanes with chemically reactive Mg electrode led to the formation of optically active polysilanes in high yields. In addition it was also found in this study that partial trnsfomation of phenyl group of phenylmethylpolysilane synthesized by the electroreduction to chloro group followed by the reaction with optically active Grignard reagents led to the formation of optiaclly active polysilanes with high yields. The reaction of above mentioned chlorosilane with optically active alcohols such as menthol also gave optically active polysilanes in reasonable yields. These methods can be carried out at room temperature and under ordinal pressure without using dangerous metal, and hence, the methods are practical for the synthesis of optically active polysilanes.
