Geminal bis(silanes) are versatile synthetic building blocks owing to their stability and propensity to undergo a variety of transformations. However, the scarcity of catalytic methods for their synthesis limits their structural diversity and thus their utility for further applications. Herein we report a new method for synthesis of geminal bis(silanes) by means of iron-catalyzed dihydrosilylation of alkynes. Iron catalysts were distinctly superior to the other tested catalysts, which clearly demonstrates that novel reactivity can be found by using iron catalysts. This method features 100% atom economy, regiospecificity, mild reaction conditions, and readily available starting materials. Using this method, we prepared a new type of geminal bis(silane) with secondary silane moieties, the Si-H bonds of which can easily undergo various transformations, facilitating the synthetic applications of these compounds. Preliminary mechanistic studies demonstrated that the reaction proceeds via two iron-catalyzed hydrosilylation reactions, the first generating β-( E)-vinylsilanes and the second producing geminal bis(silanes).
