Catalytic asymmetric silicon-carbon bond-forming transformations based on Si–H functionalization

In view of the exciting advancement on silicon–carbon bond-forming transformations achieved in the past decade,this review intends to show a unified illustration of the recent findings on enantioselective Si–H bond functionalization aided by asymmetric catalysis.Accordingly,this review describes the enantioselective silicon–carbon bond-forming Si–H bond functionalization,focusing on the reactivity and stereoselectivity in catalytic asymmetric hydrosilylation,carbene Si–H insertion,C–H silylation,and Si–C bond-forming cross-coupling reactions that were achieved with high enantioselectivity in the presence of transitionmetal catalyst systems.This review highlights recent and representative examples of the enantioselective Si–H bond functionalization,discusses the origins of silicon-involving stereoselectivities,and evaluates the substrate scopes and limitations in these catalytic asymmetric Si–H bond functionalization reactions due to the special reactivity of different hydrosilanes.
