Highly efficient iridium-catalyzed oxidation of organosilanes to silanols.
Hydrolytic oxidation of organosilanes to the corresponding silanols can be performed highly efficiently with a catalyst system of [IrCl(C(8)H(12))](2) under essentially neutral and mild conditions, and various types of silanols are produced in good to excellent yields.
