The tetraalkoxysilane carrying a stable seven-membered dioxasilepane moiety and two trifluoroethoxy groups undergoes reliable iterative substitution of the two trifluoroethoxy groups by sequential treatment with different aryl Grignard reagents while keeping the seven-membered structure intact. The process results in the synthesis of unsymmetrical dialkoxydiarylsilanes and eventually diarylsilanediols after proper hydrolysis.

Solvent-free techniques have gained considerable attention in recent years due to their environmental advantages and potential to enable chemical reactivities beyond the reach of traditional solution-based methods. Mechanochemistry has emerged as a groundbreaking approach to drive sustainable chemical processes. Despite its promise, some challenges still need to be explored, including the overlooked issue of material leaching during grinding, a phenomenon in which components from milling media or reaction vessels, such as stainless steel, unintentionally alter reaction outcomes.

Polysulfides play an essential role across a variety of fields, including life sciences, pharmaceuticals, food science, and materials science. However, the controlled sequential installation of groups at both ends of an S-S motif poses enormous challenges due to the reversible nature of the covalent S-S bond. The application of unique disulfide reagents presents one of the most straightforward approaches for constructing diverse polysulfides.
