Ionic and organometallic-catalyzed organosilane reductions

This book provides an up-to-date, comprehensive survey of the literature of this rich chemistry as it pertains to organic synthesis. Both ionic and catalyst-mediated reaction types are included, with appropriate reference to reactionmechanisms where they have been elucidated. A wide variety of organic functional group reductions by organosilicon hydrides receive critical comments and evaluation, especially with respect to scope and limitations. A substantial discussion of asymmetric reductions is also included in this book. The contents of the book are taken from the comprehensive review of the topic contained in Organic Reactions series and cover the reduction of all organic groups. All known examples are compiled in 34, easily scanned, comprehensive tables compiled from 809 original articles. Updated lists comprising 256 additional referencesfor the tables are provided that bring the coverage up to March 2009. The authors of this chapter continue to be involved in the applications of organosilanes to organic synthesis. Consistent with the goal of Organic Reactions, the content and presentation emphasize the preparative aspects of the reductions giving considerable attention to the scope and limitations of the individual transformations along with detailed experimental procedures. Ionic and Organometallic-Catalyzed Organosilane Reductions is an essential reference book for all synthetic organic chemists working in academic and industrial laboratories.
