Abstract

Generation of a radical anion of a carbonyl compound in the presence of fluoroalkyltrimethylsilanes results in a chain reaction of addition to the carbonyl group with the generation of corresponding silyl ethers at a current efficiency of up to 7000%. A similar reaction is realized when zinc dust is used as the reductant.
