Abstract

A Rh-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of silacyclobutanes is disclosed, expanding the concise stereocenter construction from carbon to silicon for the first time. The presence of ortho-substituents around silicon enables the synthesis of diverse tertiary silanes in good yields and with high enantioselectivities (up to 95 : 5 er).
