Spirosilane derivatives have been investigated as fluoride sensors. The reactions between these compounds and different fluoride sources, which resulted in structural alterations, have been monitored and quantified by UV and fluorescence spectroscopy. The high selectivity of these probes for fluoride ions has been demonstrated in either organic or aqueous media.

A visible-light-induced photocatalytic C-Si formation strategy has been disclosed by uncovering the reactivity of Martin's spirosilane-derived pentacoordinate silylsilicates as silyl radical precursors. The hydrosilylation of a broad spectrum of alkenes and alkynes, as well as the C-H silylation of heteroarenes, has been demonstrated. Remarkably, Martin's spirosilane was stable and could be recovered via a simple workup process.

Pentacoordinate silicon derivatives with a chloromethyl ligand are versatile compounds that are usually obtained from the corresponding tetravalent trialkoxy- or trihalogeno(chloromethyl)silane. We describe herein the synthesis of a chloromethylsilicate bearing two Martin's ligands readily obtained by addition of in situ generated chloromethyllithium to a spirosilane. The reactivity of this new species was evaluated and it has been established that the chloride is displaced by strong nucleophiles such as alkyllithiums and (hetero)aryllithiums.

Less than ten years of acquaintance with hypercoordinated silicon derivatives in our lab is described in this account. Martin's spirosilane derivatives open new opportunities as ligands and as agents for the activation of small molecules and bis-catecholato silicates have proven to be exquisite radical precursors in photoredox conditions for broad synthetic applications.

In this work, the interaction between Lewis bases, especially N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs), and hindered neutral silicon derivatives featuring high Lewis acidity is described. The formation of normal and abnormal Lewis adducts could be controlled by varying the acidity of the corresponding tetravalent spiro organosilane. Some DFT calculations permitted to gain insight into the thermodynamics of the NHC-spirosilane interaction featuring various NHCs differing in size and σ-donor capacity.

A new route to Martin's spirosilanes has been devised. The original synthesis does not allow diversely substituted spirosilane derivatives to be synthesized, and thus their corresponding silicates. In this report, Martin's spirosilanes bearing alkyl, aryl, halogen, alkoxy, and trifluoromethyl substituents on the aryl ring have been prepared through a versatile four-step route.
