Abstract

The following experimental procedure is typical: a dichloromethane (1.0 ml) solution of acetyl bromide (94 mg, 0.76 mmol) was added dropwise to a suspension of anhydrous tin(II) bromide (7.3 mg, 0.026 mmol) and 2-phenyl-1-trimethylsiloxyethane (96 mg, 0.49 mmol) in dichloromethane (1.5 ml) at room temperature under argon atmosphere. The resultant solution was stirred for 20 min at room temperature. The reaction mixture was quenched with a phosphate buffer ...
