Abstract

Abstract Image

Cu(I) complexes of xanthane-based diphosphines were versatile catalysts for dehydrogenative alcohol silylation, exhibiting high activity and broad substrate scope. Highly selective silylation of 1-decanol over 2-decanol is possible even with a silylating reagent of small steric demand such as HSiMe2Ph or HSiEt3.
