Abstract
Tetraaryl-1,2,3-triazolium salts are nitrenium-based Lewis acids. These salts catalyze the facile hydrosilylation-deoxygenation of ketones, aldehydes, acetals, alcohols, ethers, and silyl ethers under mild conditions in excellent yields.

General procedure for triazolium-catalyzed hydrosilylations
Reaction conditions were optimized using acetophenone as standard substrate. The procedure is the same for all other substrates used for hydrosilylations. In a glovebox containing nitrogen atmosphere, a Schlenk tube was loaded with the acetophenone (0.1 mmol, 1 eq), PhSiH3 (0.3 mmol, 3 eq), the desired catalyst (5 mol%, 0.005 mmol, 0.05 eq), 1 ml of anhydrous DCM, and toluene (0.1 mmol, 1 eq) as internal standard. The Schlenk tube was then tightly sealed and removed from the glovebox. The mixture was stirred at 40°C for 2 hours and the yield was measured through 1H NMR (DMSO-d6 capillary added).
