The construction of C(sp3)-Si bonds is important in synthetic, medicinal, and materials chemistry. In this context, reactions mediated by silyl radicals have become increasingly attractive but methods for accessing these intermediates remain limited. We present a new strategy for silyl radical generation via electroreduction of readily available chlorosilanes. At highly biased potentials, electrochemistry grants access to silyl radicals through energetically uphill reductive cleavage of strong Si-Cl bonds. This strategy proved to be general in various alkene silylation reactions including disilylation, hydrosilylation, and allylic silylation under simple and transition-metal-free conditions.
Chloroplatinic acid catalyzed cyclization of silanes bearing pendant acetylenic groups

Chloroplatinic acid catalyzed, intramolecular hydrosilylation of acetylenes of structure HMe2SinSiMe2CCR (R = H or Ph, n = 2 or 3) proceeds via syn addition of the Si-H group to the carbon triple bond to give, predominantly, cyclic products having an
