Synthesis and NMR characterization of a spirosilole tetra-anion: a homogeneous four-electron reductant

The development of highly selective homogeneous electron transfer reagents is highly desirable for synthetic chemistry. An isolable spirosilole tetra-anion described in this paper has been proved to be a promising soluble electron transfer reagent. The reduction of octaphenyl-1,1′-spirobisilole (1)...
