Abstract
AbstractReactions of a boryl‐substituted acyclic silylene with carbon dioxide and monoxide are reported. The former proceeds through oxygen atom abstraction, generating CO (with rearrangement of the putative silanone product through silyl‐group transfer). The latter is characterized by reductive coupling of CO to give an ethynediolate fragment, which undergoes formal insertion into the Si−B bond. The net conversion of carbon dioxide with two equivalents of silylene offers a route for the three‐electron reduction of CO2 to [C2O2]2−.
