Catalytic hydrosilylation in reductive ether synthesis and reductive Beckmann rearrangements

This thesis explores some of the applications of hydrosilanes as reducing agents for the introduction of carbon-heteroatom bonds in contemporary organic synthesis. Two approaches are considered in detail: the synthesis of ethers through ester reduction and a reductive variation of the Beckmann rearr...
