Results The yields of arylhydrocarbon products from trialkylsilane reductions of the corresponding carbonyl compounds are given in Table I. In general, 2 equiv of silane are required for the reduction of 1 equiv of carbonyl compound to the methylene product in trifluoroacetic acid (eq 1); silane products are the trial-
