Case Study: Identifying Suitable Strategies for Silole Synthesis
“We are currently working in the field of group 4 metalloles with a main focus on siloles. Siloles are higher congeners of cyclopentadiene, which have an astoundingly narrow HOMO–LUMO gap. For this reason, we are interested in their electronic properties and their use as ligands for early transition and rare earth metals. In this case study I utilize Science of Synthesis Online to search the literature for strategies toward silole synthesis and to reduce the various options to a small number of most suitable pathways.”
