	abstract = {Herein, we have explored the chemistry of 1,3-bis(2,6-di-isopropylphenyl)-5,5-dimethy1-4,6-diketopyrimidinyl-2-ylidene (1) with various silanes under mild conditions. The oxidative addition of Si-H bond of phenylsilane with DAC 1 affords the compound 2, which is unambiguously characterized by muitinuclear NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and X-ray single crystal diffraction studies. Interestingly, DAC 1 activates silicon hydride bond of chlorosilanes at room temperature and results in the corresponding silylation products.},
