A highly stereocontrolled syn-addition of silicon nucleophiles across cyclopropenes with two different geminal substituents at C3 is reported. Diastereomeric ratios are excellent throughout (d.r.≥98:2) and enantiomeric excesses usually higher than 90 %, even reaching 99 %. This copper-catalyzed C-Si bond formation closes the gap of the direct synthesis of α-chiral cyclopropylsilanes. ...[more]
