24 Thermochemistry<br />
calculated DH values for the silanes with the follow<strong>in</strong>g substituents (<strong>in</strong> parentheses)<br />
are 383.3 (H) 387.8 (CH3), 384.4 (Cl), 394.5 (F), 379.3 (NH2), 388.5 (OH)<br />
and 376.1 (SH) kJ/mol. It is worth not<strong>in</strong>g that the replacement <strong>of</strong> H by CH3 or<br />
OH <strong>in</strong>creases the bond strength <strong>of</strong> ca 5 kJ/mol, whereas the replacement <strong>of</strong> H<br />
with NH2 or SH decreases the bond strength by 4 and 7 kJ/mol, respectively.<br />
2.2.4 DERIVED BOND DISSOCIATION ENTHALPIES<br />
Due to the importance <strong>of</strong> homolytic bond dissociation enthalpies for understand<strong>in</strong>g<br />
radical chemistry, a set <strong>of</strong> Me3Si w X bond dissociation enthalpies was<br />
derived via the relationship<br />
DH(Me3Si w X) ¼ DH f (Me3Si:) þ DH f (X:) DH f (Me3SiX) (2:10)<br />
Table 2.3 shows the DH f values for a variety <strong>of</strong> radicals and their correspond<strong>in</strong>g<br />
Me3Si derivatives, together with the calculated like DH(Me3Si w X)<br />
from Equation (2.10).<br />
The DH(Me3Si w X) varies enormously through the series <strong>of</strong> compounds <strong>in</strong><br />
Table 2.3 and strictly depends on the electronegativity <strong>of</strong> the X group. <strong>In</strong> general,<br />
the trends <strong>of</strong> DH(Me3Si w X) are the follow<strong>in</strong>g. (i) For a particular column <strong>of</strong> the<br />
periodic table, the bond strength decreases go<strong>in</strong>g from top to bottom, i.e.,<br />
