A novel and simple synthetic route for a dibenzo-7-silanorbornadiene derivative has been developed. The extremely hindered chlorosilane bearing 9,10-dihydroanthryl group, TbtRSiHCl (Tbt = 2,4,6-tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]phenyl, R = 9,10-dihydroanthryl) could be quantitatively converted into the corresponding dibenzo-7-silanorbornadiene 1 by the reaction with LDA. The molecular structure of 1 was revealed by the spectroscopic and X-ray crystallographic analyses.
