•Addition of sodium tetraarylborates to acylsilanes occurs in the presence of rhodium(I) catalysts.•Four different arylated products are obtained depending on the reaction conditions employed.•α-silyl benzhydrols are converted into the corresponding dirayl ketones.
Rhodium(I)-catalyzed arylation of benzoylsilanes with sodium tetraarylborates affords α-silyl benzhydrols, benzhydryl silyl ethers, benzhydrols, and diaryl ketones selectively depending on the catalyst, solvent, and temperature.
Graphical abstractRhodium-catalyzed addition reactions of sodium tetraarylborates to acylsilanes give α-silyl benzhydrols, benzhydryl silyl ethers, benzhydrols, and diaryl ketones depending on the conditions employed.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
