An efficient, metal‐free, silicon–hydrogen bond functionalization based on the microwave‐assisted reaction of readily available enynones and silanes is reported. This process seemingly proceeds through a 2‐furyl carbene species, a particularly elusive intermediate. Preliminary studies on the metal‐free oxygen–hydrogen and nitrogen–hydrogen bond functionalization of representative alcohols, azoles and sulfonamides are also provided.
