Iridium-catalyzed intermolecular dehydrogenative silylation of polycyclic aromatic compounds without directing groups.

Chemistry (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)

Murai M, Takami K, Takai K.
PMID: 25677898
Chemistry. 2015 Mar 16;21(12):4566-70. doi: 10.1002/chem.201406508. Epub 2015 Feb 10.

This study describes the iridium-catalyzed intermolecular dehydrogenative silylation of C(sp(2))-H bonds of polycyclic aromatic compounds without directing groups. The reaction produced various arylsilanes through both Si-H and C-H bond activation, with hydrogen as the sole byproduct. Reactivity was affected...
