Abstract: The photophysical and photochemical properties of 2-aryltrisilanes (1) was investigated via theory and experiment. The intense fluorescene band of compound 1 was assigned to the intramolecular charge-transfer (ICT) in a polar solvent. Whereas silylene extrusion and 1,3-silyl migration were the major pho-toreactions of compound 1 resulted from the solvolytic cleavage of the Si-Si bond. The temperature dependence of the products distribution suggested that both the silylene extrusion and 1,3-silyl migration came from the different excited states. The results of the photochemical reaction of compund 1 using a nonresonant two-photo(NRTP) excitation show that the silylene extrusion occurs via the 1Lastate.

Key words: 2-Aryltrisilanes, Intramolecular charge-transfer (ICT), Nonresonant two-photon photoreac- tion(NRTP)
