Abstract

Electrochemical reduction of allyl, aryl, and vinyl halides in the presence of a silylating agent (MesSiC1, HMeaiCl, and PhM@ iCl) in a solution of tetraethylammonium tosylate in dimethylformamide (DMF) gave the corresponding organosilicon compounds. The regioselectivity of the reaction of allylic halides depends on the nature of the silylating agent. Trimethylsilyl and dimethylphenylsilyl groups were introduced to the less substituted end ...
