Abstract:Stereoconvergent transformation of E/Z mixtures of olefins to products with a single steric configuration is of great practical importance but hard to achieve. Herein, we report an iron‐catalyzed stereoconvergent 1,4‐hydrosilylation reactions of E/Z mixtures of readily available conjugated dienes for the synthesis of Z‐allylsilanes with high regioselectivity and exclusive stereoselectivity. Mechanistic studies suggest that the reactions most likely proceed through a two‐electron redox mechanism. The stereosele… Show more
