Key Points

• To explore C-Si bond activation using a structurally constrained stibenium complex through metallomimetic mechanisms.
• Utilized a structural approach to mimic transition-metal behaviors.
• Investigated key catalytic steps associated with traditional metal catalysis.
• Successful activation of the C-Si bond was achieved.
• The activation pathway showed similarities to metal-catalyzed processes.
