Recent Progress in the Cross-Coupling Reaction Using Triorganosilyl-Type Reagents

Abstract

The silicon-based cross-coupling reaction has attracted much attention over recent decades because there are many advantages in using organosilicon compounds. However, the use of reagents with a triorganosilyl group as a key function remains to be established. This account summarizes our recent progress in cross-coupling chemistry with such silyl reagents. 1 Introduction 2 Preparation of HOMSi Reagents from Aryl Bromides and Disilanes 3 HOMSi Reagents from Heteroaromatics and Hydrosilanes 4 Cross-Coupling Polymerization with HOMSi Reagents 5 Cross-Coupling with Aryl(triethyl)silanes 6 Amination of Aryl Halides with N -TMS-Amines 7 Conclusion and Perspective
