Abstract. A convenient synthetic route to poly(tetrazolato) silicon complexes is described based on the four reactive centres of the N-rich, highly endothermic tetraazides of the type Si(N 3 ) 4 (L 2 ). Hypercoordinate azido(tetrazolato) silicon complexes Si(N 3 ) 2 (N 4 C-R) 2 (L 2 ), R = CH 3 , C 6 H 5 , 4-C 6 H 4 CH 3 (4a, 5, 6, 7) and Si(N 3 ) 2 (N 4 C-L) 2 (9, L = 2-C 5 H 4 N), L 2 = 2,2'-bipyridine, 1,10-phenanthroline, with SiN 6 skeletons were synthesised via multiple [3+2] dipolar cycloaddition reactions starting from Si(N 3 ) 4 (L 2 ) and a nitrile. The isolated new complexes were characterised by standard analytical methods, single crystal Xray diffraction and Differential scanning calorimetry (4a,b). Tetrazolato ligand linkage isomerism was observed for complex 4a. The crystallographically characterised methyl tetrazolato complexes and plausible configurational and linkage isomers were evaluated by DFT calculations on the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level.
