Abstract
Bench-stable nickel fluoride complexes bearing NNN pincer ligands have been employed as precursors for the regioselective hydrosilylation of epoxides at room temperature. A nickel hydride assisted epoxide opening is followed by the cleavage of the newly formed nickel oxygen bond by σ-bond metathesis with a silane.
