Synthesis of unsaturated silyl heterocycles via an intramolecular silyl-heck reaction
We report the synthesis of unsaturated silacycles via an intramolecular silyl-Heck reaction. Using palladium catalysis, silicon electrophiles tethered to alkenes cyclize to form five- and six-membered silicon heterocycles. The effects of alkene substitution and tether length on the efficiency and regioselectivity of the cyclizations are described. Finally, through the use of an intramolecular tether, the first examples of disubstituted alkenes in silyl-Heck reactions are reported.

Yttrium–Benzyl Complexes Bearing Chiral Iminophosphonamide Ligands: Synthesis and Application in Catalytic Asymmetric Amine-Silane Dehydrocoupling Reactions
A series of novel iminophosphonamide ligands with chiral diamine moieties were designed and synthesized. Yttrium–benzyl compounds bearing these chiral iminophosphonamide ligands showed high reactivity and selectivity on the first catalytic asymmetric cros

Acceleration of the substitution of silanes with Grignard reagents by using either LiCl or YCl3/MeLi
Getting up to speed: Both LiCl and the YCl3/MeLi catalyst system have an acceleration effect upon the substitution of silanes using Grignard reagents (see scheme). The method provides access to benzyl-, allyl-, and arylsilanes in good yields from the starting silanes.
