Synthetic and mechanistic studies of arylsilane oxidation

Abstract:

In this thesis, we study arylsilane oxidation from both a synthetic and a mechanistic perspective. Building upon previous work within our group, we demonstrate in an early chapter that arylhydrosilanes are surprisingly reactive to oxidation. This disproves the previous assumptions of the Tamao oxidation and provides new insights into the mechanism of the reaction. Furthermore, we find that the best substrates for oxidation are arylmethoxysilanes, and we describe rapid and efficient synt...
