Application

Diethylsilane serves multiple purposes in various chemical processes. Primarily, it is used as a precursor in the preparation of (3-allylsulfanyl-propyl)-diethyl-silane, employing (Ph3P)3RhCl as a reagent. Additionally, it plays a significant role in the chemical vapor deposition of SiO2, which is vital for microelectronics applications. Beyond these uses, diethylsilane functions as a reductant in the catalytic reduction of secondary amides to imines and secondary amines, utilizing iridium catalysts like [Ir(COE)2Cl]2, which require low catalyst loading and demonstrate high efficiency with notable functional group tolerance. Furthermore, it aids in the conversion of polycarboxylic acids to their corresponding alkanes and is employed in the 'in-situ' preparation of diborane and haloboranes.
