This communication describes the development of a metal-free catalytic decarboxylation of silyl alkynoates to alkynylsilanes. Treatment of a silyl alkynoate with a catalytic amount of tetrabutylammonium difluorotriphenylsilicate (TBAT) in <i>N</i>,<i>N</i>-dimethylformamide at 150 °C resulted in decarboxylation to give the corresponding alkynylsilane in good to excellent yield (75 → 95%). The TBAT system was applicable to the decarboxylation of sterically demanding silyl alkynoates such as <i>te ...[more]
