This thesis describes copper-catalyzed carbon-silicon bond formations, including 1,4-addition to α,β-unsaturated esters, 1,2-addition to aldehydes and highly regioselective silylcupration of terminal alkynes, based on Si-B bond activation. A brief summary of traditional Si-B bond activation catalyze...
