It was found that the Si--H BDE displayed dramatically different substituent effects compared with the C--H BDE. On the other hand, the P---H and S--H BDE exhibited patterns of substituent effects similar to those of the N--H and O--H BDE. Further analysis indicated that increasing the positive charge on Si of XSiH3 would strengthen the Si--H bond whereas increasing the positive charge on P and S of XPH2 and XSH would weaken the P---H and S--H bonds. Meanwhile, increasing the positive charge on Si of XSiH2^+ stabilized the silyl radical whereas increasing the positive charge on P and S in XPH" and XS* destabilized P- and S-centered radicals. These behaviors could be reasonalized by the fact that Si is less electronegative than H while P and S are not. Finally, it was demonstrated that the spin-delocalization effect was valid for the Si-, P- and S-centered radicals.展开更多
