Abstract

The article observes a theoretical method of quantum chemistry that has been used to study the chemical reaction of 1,2-dimethyldisilene formation from methylsilylene. During the study the geometric parameters and thermodynamic characteristics of the structural isomers of 1,2-dimethyldisilene were determined. The study has defined that the reaction of 1,2-dimethyldisilene formation from methylsilylene is exothermic and occurs spontaneously at temperatures below 1570 K, at the same time the rate of the chemical reaction under study increases significantly with the decreasing of the temperature.
