title: Tweaking copper hydride (CuH) for synthetic gain. A practical, one-pot conversion of dialkyl ketones to reduced trialkylsilyl ether derivatives.
abstract: [reaction: see text] Variations in the reagents and stoichiometries used to generate CuH in situ, as well as the nature of the ligands present, have led to a very efficient and inexpensive method for effecting hydrosilylations of dialkyl ketones.
