A visible‐light inducedradicalsilylation to dibenzosiloles from biarylhydrosilanes is described. The products were obtained in satisfactory yields under mild and water/air compatible conditions, providing an efficient and practical method for the synthesis of difunctionalized siloles by using a cheap organic dye photocatalyst. The method is tolerated by a wide range of functional groups and has a
for the preparation of dibenzosiloles was developed through intramolecular C−H/Si−H dehydrogenative coupling strategy starting from biarylhydrosilanes. Both electro-donating and electro-withdrawing substitution groups were tolerated for this transformation, and the desired dibenzosilole products could be obtained in moderate to excellent yields. A sila-Friedel-Crafts reaction mechanism was proposed
