SILYL ETHERS AS PRODUCTS OF THE HYDROXIDE-CATALYZED FORMATION OF SILICON-OXYGEN BONDS BY DEHYDROGENATIVE COUPLING OF HYDROSILANES AND ALCOHOLS

摘要

The present disclosure is directed to methods for dehydrogenatively coupled hydrosilanes and alcohols, the methods comprising contacting an organic substrate having at least one organic alcohol moiety with a mixture of at least one hydrosilane and sodium and/or potassium hydroxide, the contacting resulting in the formation of a dehydrogenatively coupled silyl ether. The disclosure further described associated compositions and methods of using the formed products.
