The construction of C(sp3)-Si bonds is important in synthetic, medicinal, and materials chemistry. In this context, reactions mediated by silyl radicals have become increasingly attractive but methods for accessing these intermediates remain limited. We present a new strategy for silyl radical generation via electroreduction of readily available chlorosilanes. At highly biased potentials, electrochemistry grants access to silyl radicals through energetically uphill reductive cleavage of strong Si-Cl bonds. This strategy proved to be general in various alkene silylation reactions including disilylation, hydrosilylation, and allylic silylation under simple and transition-metal-free conditions.

Sulfonyl-activated sp3 carbon-nitrogen bonds have been found to be cleaved by Grignard reagents in the presence of 5 mol% of copper(I) iodide (CuI). Significantly, a broad range of sulfonyl-activated benzylic, allylic, and propargylic amines smoothly undergo the cross-coupling reaction with Grignard reagents to afford structurally diverse coupling products in good to excellent yields and with high chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity. Moreover, an S N2 mechanism has been demonstrated to be involved in the cross-coupling reaction that allows the asymmetric synthesis of chiral hydrocarbons from optically active α-branched amine derivatives.
