The reaction of the amidinatosilicon(I) dimer [LSi:]2 (1; L = PhC(N tBu)2) with FeBr2 in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at ambient temperature afforded the silicon(I)-iron(II) dimer [LSi(FeBr2·THF)]2 (2) after 40 h. Compound 2 can catalyze hydroboration of aliphatic and aromatic ketone compounds with HBpin i...
