Abstract
AbstractThe cover picture shows the Aiguille du Midi, Mont Blanc massif, France. The mechanism of the copper‐catalyzed hydrosilylation of ketones has been determined by experimental mechanistic investigations and computational studies. The insertion of the ketone into the Cu–H bond was found to have a lower activation barrier than the reaction of the copper alkoxy intermediate with the silane that regenerates the Cu–H bond along with the silyl ether product, as shown in the picture. Details are discussed in the article by A. Dedieu, S. Bellemin‐Laponnaz et al. on p. 529 ff.
