N-[1-Phenyl-2,5-bis(trimethylsilyl)pent-2-en-4-yn-1-yl]aniline

Abstract

The molecular structure of the title compound, C23H31NSi2, reveals an acyclic conjugated enyne unit as the main feature. The central pent-2-en-4-yl fragment is essentially planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.0492 (7) Å from the mean plane defined by the C—C=C—C[triple-bond]C unit. The dihedral angle between the phenyl rings is 84.44 (5)°.
