Electron-transfer reaction of 1,2-disila-3,5-cyclohexadienes
Phololysis of 1,2-disila-3,5-cyclohaxadienes 1a-b in the presence of methylene blue as a sensitizer led to efficient formation of the correspondng siloles as ring contraction products. The reaction mechanism is best rationalized by electron-transfer from

Novel Photo-induced Reactions of 1,1-Dimethyl-2,5-diphenylsilacyclopentadiene with Benzophenone Derivatives
Irradiation of 1,1-dimethyl-2,5-diphenylsilacyclopentadiene with benzophenone derivatives afforded two oxetanes via photo-induced electron transfer processes.
