This work describes the design and application of a single-pot, reductive arene C-H silanolization of aromatic esters for synthesis of ortho-formyl arylsilanols. This strategy involves a sequence of two transition metal (Ir and Rh)-catalyzed reactions for reductive arene ortho-silylation directed by hydridosilyl acetals and hydrolysis.

Trumping DIBALH: A new method for reduction of esters to aldehydes through silyl acetal intermediates involves a single-step hydrosilylation catalyzed by a readily available iridium complex, [{Ir(coe)2Cl}2] (see scheme; coe=cyclooctene). The low catalyst loading, mild reaction conditions, high conversions, and broad substrate scope make this method a superior alternative to ester reduction using DIBALH.
