Abstract:
E?Si transfer : Anionic compounds capable of transferring a silicon‐containing double bond are reviewed (see figure), particularly reagents with Si?Si moieties (Tip=2,4,6‐iPr3C6H2, M=Li, Na, K) and their applications towards main‐group and transition‐metal electrophiles, as well as their reactivity towards organic compounds. A few recently reported derivatives with Si?C (Ad=1‐adamantyl) and Si?P moieties are included for completeness.
