Abstract

Hypercoordinate silicates represent an improved class of radical precursors for single-electron transmetalation because of their low oxidation potentials and the innocuous byproducts generated upon oxidation. The cross-coupling of secondary and primary ammonium alkylsilicates with (hetero)aryl bromides works in good to excellent yields.
