Unsaturated organosilanes: synthesis, transformations and applications

The urgency of improving the efficiency of known methods and developing new ones for the synthesis of unsaturated silanes is caused by the need to obtain useful compounds, including biologically active ones, on their basis. This review considers methods for the preparation of unsaturated silanes, their transformations and prospects for their use as precursors in organic and organoelement synthesis. A large number of substituted organosilicon products are given, including those capable of further functionalization and the formation of heterocycles, including silaheterocycles.
