Considerable attention has been devoted to the development of alternative hydrogen-atom donors and chain carriers for the Barton–McCombie reaction, which has been dominated by tin chemistry;[271–273] for more information, see Section 48.1.3.3.5. Organic silicon hydrides are capable of undergoing homolytic cleavage of the Si—H bond and have little or no toxicity; they therefore form a broad group of potentially useful reducing agents. Several common alkyl- and arylsilanes have been evaluated for use as hydrogen-atom donors, and several silanes have been synthesized specifically for this purpose. The strength of the Si—H bond in these silanes varies considerably, but even those with relatively strong Si—H bonds can be used successfully.[274]
