Top: Computed energy profile for carbazolyl‐silylene derivatives 2X and [RSi]+ (R=1,8‐bis(3,5‐di‐tert‐butyl‐phenyl)‐3,6‐di‐tert‐butyl‐carbazole, energy not to scale). Bottom: Synthesis of base‐free halosilylenes RSiBr (2Br) and RSiI (2I, BDI=β‐diketiminate) and subsequent iodide abstraction from 2I.
