α-Diazo-α-(trialkylsilyl)alkanones 6 have been prepared by silylation of primary α-diazo ketones 4 with trialkylsilyl triflates 5.Diazo compounds 6 are decomposed in boiling benzene to give 1-oxa-2-sila-4-cyclopentenes 7 and 9.Evidence is presented that this transformation proceeds via alkylidenecarbenes 17 which undergo 1,5-cyclization by carbene insertion into a SiC-H bond.
