Abstract

Preceramic actylenic polysilanes are described which contain --(CH.sub.2).sub.w C.tbd.CR' groups attached to silicon where w is an integer from 0 to 3 and where R' is hydrogen, an alkyl radical containing 1 to 6 carbon atoms, a phenyl radical, or an --SiR"'.sub.3 radical wherein R"' is an alkyl radical containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms. The acetylenic polysilanes are prepared by reacting chlorine- or bromine-containing polysilanes with either a Grignard reagent of general formula R'C.tbd.C(CH.sub.2).sub.w MgX' where w is an integer from 0 to 3 and X' is chlorine, bromine, or iodine or an organolithium compound of general formula R'C.tbd.C(CH.sub.2).sub.w Li where w is an integer from 0 to 3. The acetylenic polysilanes can be converted to ceramic materials by pyrolysis at elevated temperatures under an inert atmosphere.
