Aromatic CH silylation of arenes by 1,2-di-tert-butyl-1,1,2,2-tetrafluorodisilane is efficiently catalyzed by iridium(I) complexes generated from [{Ir(OMe)(cod)}2] (cod=cyclooctadiene) and 4,4′-di-tert-butyl-2,2′-bipyridine (dtbpy; see scheme) and provides the corresponding aryl fluorosilanes in excellent yields.
