Abstract

Abstract: The transition metal-catalyzed transfer of silicon nucleophiles onto various electrophiles has recently gained considerable attention, due to the now readily available silicon pro-nucleophiles such as silylboronates. Our interest lies in the addition of such species to acid derivatives for the generation of acylsilanes. We report herein an efficient method to synthesize these compounds, starting from easyto-form anhydrides, with very ...
