Trialkylsilanes are important building blocks in organic synthesis; however, their widespread use in redox chemistry is limited by their high oxidation potentials and comparably high bond dissociation energies (BDEs) of Si-H and α-Si-C-H bonds (>92 kcal mol −1 ). Herein, we report a new strategy for Si-H bond homolysis enabled by the synergistic combination of electrooxidation, photoinduced ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT), and radical-mediated hydrogen atom transfer (HAT). Governed by the polarity-matching effect, the HAT to electrophilic MeO• or [Cl-OHCH 3 ]• from the more hydridic Si-H instead of a C-H bond allows the selective generation of silyl radicals. This electrophotocatalytic protocol provides rapid access to Si-functionalized benzimidazo-fused isoquinolinones with broad functional-group compatibility. Mechanistic studies have shown that n-Bu 4 NCl is essential to the electrooxidation of CeCl 3 to form the Ce (IV) species.
