CRYSTAL AND MOLECULAR STRUCTURE OF 1-(3-AMMONIOPROPYL)SILATRANE CHLORIDE
By single crystal X-ray diffraction the crystal and molecular structure of 1-(3-ammoniopropyl)silatrane chloride (I) is determined. One of three cations in the asymmetric unit of the crystal of I differs from the other two by the length of the coordination N ® Si bond. The opposite electronic effects in two geometrically similar cations are transferred inductively through a three-carbon chain.
