The synthesis and the thermal behaviour of the (methylphenylsilyl)methyl carbonates CH3(C6H5)Si(H)CH2OC(O)X (6: X = OCH3; 7: X = Cl; 8: X = N(CH3)2) is described. 8 rearranges in toluene solution at 100 deg C quantitatively to give the carbamoyloxysilane C6H5(CH3)2SiOC(O)N(CH3)2 (11), whereas neat 6 and 7 at 135 deg C undergo quantitative formation of C6H5(CH3)2SiOCH3 (12) and C6H5(CH3)2SiCl (13), respectively.The formation of 12 and 13 is explained by a rearrangement reaction (by analogy to the rearrangement of 8), followed by a decarboxylation.The thermally induced transformations 6-->12, 7-->13, and 8-->11 were found to be first-order reactions with half-lifes of ca. 2.6 h (135 deg C, neat), ca. 4.5 h (135 deg C, neat), and ca. 3.7 h (100 deg C, in toluene), respectively. - Keywords: (Methylphenylsilyl)methyl Carbonates, Rearrangement, Dimethylphenylsilyl Carbonates, Decarboxylation
