The Piers-Rubinsztajn reaction, involving B(C(6)F(5))(3)-catalyzed siloxane formation from hydrosilanes + alkoxysilanes, is tolerant of a wide variety of functional groups, and provides a generic strategy for the preparation of structurally complex functional silicones.

Testing the Functional Tolerance of the Piers—Rubinsztajn Reaction: A New Strategy for Functional Silicones.
Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane is a good catalyst for the preparation of functionalized siloxanes such as (III) and (VI) by Piers—Rubinsztajn reaction of alkoxysilanes with hydrosilanes.
Piers-Rubinsztajn Reaction and the Application in Siloxane/Polysiloxane Chemistry
By using the Piers-Rubinsztajn processes, elastomers, foams, silicone surfactants and copolymers with alkoxy-functional arylamines and ethers can be prepared. The preparation and applications of…
Influence of the tetraalkoxysilane crosslinker on the properties of polysiloxane-based elastomers prepared by the Lewis acid-catalysed Piers-Rubinsztajn reaction
We investigate the influence of the tetrafunctional alkoxysilan R-groups, with a range of sterics and electronics. This is through a solvent free polysiloxane network formation under ambient…
Synthesis of structured polysiloxazanes via a Piers-Rubinsztajn reaction.
TLDR
A series of siloxazanes were successfully prepared by a Piers-Rubinsztajn reaction between methoxydisilazanes and the corresponding hydrosilanes to investigate the possible interaction mechanism between tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane and the methoxysilazane.
New Control Over Silicone Synthesis using SiH Chemistry: The Piers-Rubinsztajn Reaction.
TLDR
The Piers-Rubinsztajn reaction and analogues permits the synthesis of monofunctional dendrons that can be assembled into larger entities including highly branched silicones and dendrimers either using the Piers/Rubins/Tajn process alone, or in combination with hydrosilylation or other orthogonal reactions.
Extension of the Application of Piers‐Rubinsztajn Conditions to Produce Triarylamine Pendant Dimethylsiloxane Copolymers
Summary: In this paper we show how the strong organic Lewis acid catalyst, tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane (B(C6F5) or BCF), can be used to facilitate the functionalization of simple polymeric…
Silicone dendrons and dendrimers from orthogonal SiH coupling reactions
There are many potential applications for precise, large molecular weight silicone structures. The available elegant routes to silicone dendrimers are compromised by the use of reactions that involve…
Siloxane-Bond Formation Promoted by Lewis Acids: A Nonhydrolytic Sol-Gel Process and the Piers-Rubinsztajn Reaction.
TLDR
The evolution of both reactions should realize a more sophisticated molecular design of siloxane compounds, which surely contributes to the development of advanced functional materials.
Amphiphilic silicone architectures via anaerobic thiol-ene chemistry.
TLDR
The synthesis of a library of explicit silicone-poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) materials is reported, and pure silicone fragments were generated by the B(C(6)F(5))(3)-catalyzed condensation of alkoxysilanes and vinyl-functionalized hydrosilanes.

Rapid assembly of complex 3D siloxane architectures.
TLDR
It is demonstrated that balancing the steric demands at both the hydrosilane and alkoxysilanes, and the careful control of reaction conditions, permits clean condensation reactions to occur in the absence of competing metathesis processes.
Direct Synthesis of PVA-g-PDMS in Microsuspension
The synthesis of P(VA-co-VAc)-graft-PDMS copolymers has been achieved in microsuspension by direct reaction between an epoxy-terminated PDMS and some pendant alcohol groups in P(VA-co-VAc). In this…
Versatile, efficient derivatization of polysiloxanes via click technology.
TLDR
Copper-catalyzed (click chemistry) or thermal 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of molecular or polymeric azido-siloxanes with a broad range of alkynes easily yield new conjugates that would be otherwise difficult, if not impossible, to prepare by traditional methodologies.
Preparation of Polyaryloxysilanes and Polyaryloxysiloxanes by B(C6F5)3 Catalyzed Polyetherification of Dihydrosilanes and Bis-Phenols
Polyaryloxysilanes and siloxanes (PAS) are an interesting and useful class of polymers with excellent flammability characteristics. The B(C6F5)3 catalyzed dehydrocondensation of bis-phenols or their…
Toward selective functionalisation of oligosilanes: borane-catalysed dehydrogenative coupling of silanes with thiols.
Among established methods for transforming Si-H bonds, carbonyl hydrosilylation and heterodehydrogenative coupling with alcohols catalysed by B(C6F5)3 are shown to provide exceptionally clean routes…

TLDR
The possibility to employ aryl-containing hydrosilanes in this reaction opens broad capabilities for the synthesis of alcohols via a trans- selective hydrosilylation/Tamao-Fleming oxidation sequence, complementary to the existing cis-selective hydroboration/oxidation protocol.

Studies on the mechanism of B(C(6)F(5))(3)-catalyzed hydrosilation of carbonyl functions
TLDR
This mechanistic proposal is supported by a kinetic isotope effect of 1.4(5) for the hydrosilation of acetophenone, the observation that B(C(6)F(5))(3) catalyzes H/D and H/H scrambling in silanes in the absence of substrate, computational investigations, the synthesis of models for proposed intermediates, and other isotope labeling and crossover experiments.
B(C(6)F(5))(3)-Catalyzed hydrosilation of imines via silyliminium intermediates
TLDR
Spectral evidence supports the intermediacy of a silyliminium cation with a hydridoborate counterion formed via abstraction of a hydride from PhMe(2)SiH by B(C(6)F(5))(3) in the presence of imines.
