Allylic Transpositions of Enantiomerically Pure C1-Acyloxy (E)-Crotylsilanes: Stereospecific Synthesis of (E)-Vinylsilanes

Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/jo00308a011

Treatment of (R)- and (S)-C1-acylated (E)-crotylsilanes 1 with catalytic amounts of boron trifluoride etherate or dichloropalladium bisacetonitrile in methylene chloride at room temperature resulted in allylic transposition of the ester gr
