Abstract

Counterattack reagent'Me3SiSiMe3 can efficiently silylate hydrazines under alkaline conditiom2 We intended to use the counterattack method to prepare another important class of compounds-allyltrimethylsilanes, The allyltrimethylsilane moiety is versatile in organic This moiety possesses umpolung character and is regarded as a synthon for allyl cations and anions. Three new methods reported herein (see Scheme I) involve the use of ...
