- Cationic rearrangements controlled by the presence of a silyl group
-
1,1-Disilylcarbinols having two alkyl groups on the adjacent carbon atom react with thionyl chloride in sulfur dioxide to give the product in which one of the alkyl groups has migrated towards the two silyl groups, and one of the silyl groups has been removed from the resultant cation. The reaction is seen in ring-expansion, as in the conversion of cyclohexylbis[dimethyl(phenyl)silyl]carbinol (7) into 1-dimethyl(phenyl) silylcycloheptene (11), and in open chains, as in the conversion of 1,1-bis[dimethyl(phenyl)silyl]-2-methylpropanol (26) into (E)- and (Z)-2-dimethyl(phenyl)silylbut-2-ene (27). Phenyldimethylsilyllithium reacts with pinacolone to give the α-silyl carbinol (44), which rearranges in the same way to give 2,3-dimethylbut-2-ene (46), effectively achieving a pinacolone-to-pinacol rearrangement.

- One-pot synthesis of α-trimethylsilyl enones from vinylsilanes
-
Photooxygenation of vinylsilanes in the presence of acetic anhydride and pyridine afforded α-trimethylsilyl enones 1 in moderate to good yields. Since the required starting materials are readily available, the present approach constitutes a useful alterna

- ET3B Induced Stereoselective Radical Addition of Ph3GeH to Acetylenes and its Application to Isomerization of Olefins
-
Triphenylgermane adds easily to acetylenes in the presence of Et3B to give (E)- or (Z)-alkenyltriphenylgermanes, respectively, under excellent control of regio- and stereoselectivities.
