An iron‐catalyzed, N−H imine‐directed arene C−H silylation reaction with hydrosilane has been achieved. Pivalophenone N−H imine undergoes ortho C−H silylation with triethylsilane in the presence of [Fe₃(CO)₁₂] as a catalyst and norbornene as a hydrogen acceptor. The product can be readily transformed into ortho‐silylated benzonitrile via conversion of the imine functionality to a cyano group under peroxide photolysis.

铁催化新戊苯乙胺亚胺的CH H硅烷化反应

已实现了与氢硅烷的铁催化，NH亚胺定向的芳烃CH甲硅烷基化反应。在[Fe ₃（CO）₁₂ ]作为催化剂和降冰片烯作为氢受体的存在下，新戊苯甲酮NH亚胺与三乙基硅烷进行邻位CH H甲硅烷基化。通过在过氧化物光解作用下将亚胺官能团转化为氰基，可以很容易地将产物转化为邻甲硅烷基化的苄腈。
