Abstract
This article reviews organic chemistry of siloxane and silanol involving the preparative method as well as applications towards organic synthesis. Chapter 1 deals with the formation of siloxane bond and reactions of thus prepared siloxane compounds. Chapter 2 covers recent preparative methods for silanols and new synthetic reaction using silanol involving 1) utilization of silanol oxygen that serves as a base or a nucleophile, 2) transformation of neighboring functionality on the silicon substituent based on the interaction of silanol oxygen with an organometallic reagent, and 3) transformation of a carbon silicon bond of silanols directed to novel carbon-carbon bond forming reactions.
