A novel method to prepare SiCp*(2) (1) (Cp* = C5Me5) is presented involving the reaction of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-stabilized Si-II halides SiX2(NHC) (X = Cl, Br) with 2 equiv of KCp*. This route is a superior alternative to the laborious, multistep synthesis of 1 presently known and provides via the selective protonolysis of 1 with [H(Et2O)(2)]-[B(C6F5)(4)] facile access to [Si(eta(5)-Cp*)][B(C6F5)(4)] (2) in multigram scale and high yield. Reaction of 2 with the tailored metallate Na[Tp(Me)Mo(CO)(2)(PMe3)] afforded the unprecedented silylidyne complex [Tp(Me)(CO)(2)MoSi(eta(3)-Cp*)] (3; Tp(Me) = kappa(3)-N,N',N"-hydridotris (3,5-dimethyl-1-pyrazolyl)-borate). Single crystal X-ray diffraction and spectroscopic studies in combination with quantum chemical calculations shed light on the unique bonding situation of 3 featuring a delocalized Mo-Si bond with partial triple bond character and a Cp* substituent, which is eta(3)-coordinated to silicon.
