Abstract

A new, convenient, and inexpensive alternative to the in situ equivalent of iodotrimethylsilane was developed. A mixture of trichloromethylsilane/sodium iodide in dry acetonitrile is found to be a more selective reagent than chlorotrimethylsilane/sodium iodide for the cleavage of ethers, esters, and lactones. Ethers are cleaved regioselectively by this reagent. Cleavage of esters and lactones also occurred more readily with the present ...
