Organosilicon and -germanium Hydrides in Catalyst-Free Hydrometallation Reactions

Organosilicon and -germanium Hydrides in Catalyst-Free Hydrometallation Reactions
Antonín Lyčka, Roman Jambor
Group 14 element hydrides in oxidation states +IV and +II can undergo hydroelementation reactions through addition of the E–H bonds to unsaturated bonds. The neutral group 14 element(IV) hydrides do not have suitable vacant valence orbitals and as a result are only poorly effective for the hydroelementation of unsaturated bonds without addition of any initiators; however, their low-valent analogues in oxidation state +II seem to be effective in the hydroelementation of unsaturated bonds under mild conditions. The goal of this paper is to overview examples of catalyst-free hydrosilylation and hydrogermylation reactions to highlight current knowledge about uncatalysed reactions between silicon- or germanium(II and IV) hydrides and organic molecules containing unsaturated bonds.The goal of the paper is to overview examples of catalyst-free hydrosilylation and hydrogermylation reactions in order to highlight current knowledge about uncatalysed reactions between silicon- or germanium(II and IV) hydrides and organic molecules containing unsaturated bonds.
