Iron‐Catalyzed Intermolecular 1,2‐Difunctionalization of Styrenes and Conjugated Alkenes with Silanes and Nucleophiles

Abstract The first iron‐catalyzed 1,2‐difunctionalization of styrenes and conjugated alkenes with silanes and either N or C, using an oxidative radical strategy, is described. Employing FeCl 2 and di‐ tert ‐butyl peroxide allows divergent alkene 1,2‐difunctionalizations, including 1,2‐aminosilylation, 1,2‐arylsilylation, and 1,2‐alkylsilylation, which rely on a wide range of nucleophiles, namely, amines, amides, indoles, pyrroles, and 1,3‐dicarbonyls, thus providing a powerful platform for producing diverse silicon‐containing alkanes.
