Four silacyclobutyl anions have been prepared and studied by gas phase ion-molecule chemistry using newly modified tandem flowing afterglow instrumentation. These silacyclobutyl anions, which include a pentacoordinate adduct of 1,1-dimethylsilacyclobutane and fluoride and an α-silylcarbanion, siloxide, and mercaptide corresponding to 1,1-dimethylsilacyclobutane, have been characterized by their chemical reactivity and collision-induced loss of ethylene under a variety of conditions. The C-H, O-H, and S-H gas phase acidities of 1,1-dimethylsilacyclobutane, 1-hydroxy-1-methylsilacyclobutane, and 1-mercapto-1-methylsilacyclobutane have been measured and show no effect of the silacyclobutyl attachment. The full capabilities of the newly modified instrumentation include the mass selection of ions, their chemical characterization, collision-induced dissociation of both mass selected ions and those prepared by chemical reactions, and triple quadrupole detection.

The gas-phase reactions of fluoride, amide, hydroxide, and methoxide ions with a variety of substituted silanes have been studied by the flowing afterglow technique.Fluoride reacts readily with trimethylsilyl derivatives to displace benzyl, alkenyl, and alkynyl anions.These reactions have also been used to generate specific structural isomers (CH3CC- and CH2C=C=CH-).Anions more basic than phenide ion cannot be produced in this manner, and their parent trimethylsilanes interact with fluoride by more complex mechanisms.Amide, hydroxide, and methoxide ions react with substituted trimethylsilanes by both displacement and proton abstraction whenever an acidic hydrogen is present; in the absence of displaceable groups and acidic hydrogen, the reactions of amide, hydroxide, and methoxide parallel those of fluoride ion.
