We present effective generalized Hubbard models for the description of novel two dimensional materials. The local and non-local partially screened Coulomb interaction as well as hopping integrals are calculated from first principles for silicene and graphene on a metallic substrate. We consider interactions up to the 6th nearest neighbor in real space and investigate the long range behavior of the dielectric function in k-space. We compare the resulting silicene Hubbard model to the corresponding model for pure graphene. Thereby we find values of U/t ≈ 4.0 eV for the on-site and V/t ≈ 2.4 eV for the nearest neighbor partially screened Coulomb interaction in silicene, which are slightly bigger than in freestanding graphene. We further show that the ratio of the local to the non-local Coulomb interaction can be controlled by a metallic substrate, which efficiently screens non-local Coulomb terms.
