C. Duprat et al., ACCESS TO STABILIZED SILYL ANIONS BY ELECTROREDUCTION OF CHLOROSILANES, Journal of the Chemical Society, Chemical Communications, (20), 1995, pp. 2107-2107
Using the sacrificial anode technique, the electroreduction of arylchl
orosilanes into the corresponding arylhydrosilanes occurs via a silyla
luminium intermediate characterized for the first time in such reactio
