Olefin metathesis is one of the most important industrial processes for the production of alkenes. In contrast, silicon versions of metathesis are unknown given the lack of available silylene transition-metal complexes suitable for [2 + 2] cycloaddition with unsaturated substrates. Here, we report the synthesis of 18-electron titanium silylene complexes featuring different Lewis base ligands and classified on the basis of structural, computational, and reactivity studies as Schrock-type silylene complexes. Because of the presence of loosely bound Lewis base ligands, such silylene complexes readily undergo reaction with simple unsaturated hydrocarbons, such as alkynes, forming the corresponding [2 + 2] cycloaddition products.
