Cu-catalyzed efficient construction of S (Se)-containing functional organosilicon compounds

Chem Commun (Camb). 2022 Nov 10;58(90):12564-12567. doi: 10.1039/d2cc04512e.

Abstract

A Cu-catalyzed cascade reaction of four-membered silacyclobutanes (SCBs) and thiosulfonates to construct S (Se)-containing organosilicon compounds was developed. The protocol shows a wide range of substrate scope, high functional group compatibility and mild reaction conditions. New C-S (Se) and Si-O bonds were constructed in one step.
