The synthesis of bench-stable α,α-bis(trimethylsilyl)toluenes and tris(trimethylsilyl)methane is described and their use in stereoselective Peterson olefinations has been achieved with a wide substrate scope. Product stereoselectivity was poor with carbonyl electrophiles (E/Z ～1:1 to 4:1) though this was significantly improved by employing the corresponding substituted N-benzylideneaniline (up to 99:1) as an alternative electrophile. The olefination byproduct was identified as N,N-bis(trimethylsilyl)aniline and could be easily separated from product by aqueous acid extraction. Evidence for an autocatalytic cycle has been obtained.

A range of bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl-substituted aryl derivatives was prepared by using a Kumada-Corriu cross-coupling reaction. The regioselective metalation of the resulting bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl-substituted aryl derivatives bearing this bulky silyl group allowed the generation of functionalized aromatics. A regioselective switch in the presence or in the absence of the bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl group has been demonstrated. Furthermore, this silyl group was converted into a formyl group or a styryl group, enhancing the scope of application of such bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl- substituted arenes.
