Reaction of SF4 with alcohols: preparation of 2-(fluoromethyl) furan and 2-fluoro-1-phenylethane

The fluorination of (2-furyl)methanol and 2-phenylethanol with sulfur tetrafluoride is described. The reactions were carried out in glass tubes at -50°C in the presence of triethylamine or pyridine in dichloromethane or cyclohexane solution. The products,

KF/clinoptilolite NPs: An efficient and heterogeneous catalyst for chemoselective silylation of alcohols and phenols

Potassium fluoride incorporated on clinoptilolite nanoparticles (KF/CP NPs) by ion exchanging is found to be an effective and inexpensive heterogeneous nanocatalyst for chemoselective silylation of alcohols and phenols with 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) at room temperature. Nano-powder of clinoptilolite (CP) was prepared using a planetary ball mill mechanically method and characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) analyses. Almost all of products were obtained in high yields as well as short reaction times and the catalyst was also reused eight times without loss of its catalytic activity.

Silylation of Alcohols, Phenols, and Silanols with Alkynylsilanes – an Efficient Route to Silyl Ethers and Unsymmetrical Siloxanes

The formation of several silyl ethers (alkoxysilanes, R3Si-OR') and unsymmetrical siloxanes (R3Si-O-SiR'3) can be catalyzed by the commercially available potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (KHMDS). The reaction proceeds via direct dealkynative coupling between various alcohols or silanols and alkynylsilanes, with a simultaneous formation of gaseous acetylene as the sole by-product. The dehydrogenative and dealkenative coupling of alcohols or silanols are well-investigated, whilst the utilization of alkynylsilanes as silylating agents has never been comprehensively studied in this context. Overall, the presented system allows the synthesis of various attractive organosilicon compounds under mild conditions, making this approach an atom-efficient, environmentally benign, and sustainable alternative to existing synthetic solutions.

A simple and efficient room temperature silylation of diverse functional groups with hexamethyldisilazane using CeO2 nanoparticles as solid catalysts

In this study, a mild and efficient method is developed for the silylation of diverse functional groups using CeO2 nanoparticles (n-CeO2) as solid catalysts with hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) as silylating agent at room temperature. Alcohols, phenols and acids are silylated to their respective silyl derivatives with faster reaction rate while amines and thiols required relatively longer reaction time. Moreover, the solid catalyst is easily be separated from the reaction mixture and recycled more than five times without any obvious decay in its activity. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectra (UV-DRS) and Raman analyses revealed identical structural integrity, particle size, absorption edge and valence state for the reused solid compared to the fresh solid catalyst.

Fast and efficient method for Silylation of alcohols and phenols with HMDS in the presence of bis-thiourea complexes of cobalt, nickel, copper and zinc chlorides

Bis-thiourea complexes of cobalt, nickel, copper and zinc chlorides were used efficiently for rapid and efficient trimethylsilylation of alcohols and phenols with hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) in CH3CN. All reactions were carried out at room temperature within immediate-120?min timeframe to afford trimethylsilyl ether derivatives in high to excellent yields. Investigation of the results exhibited that the prepared bis-thiourea metal complexes show the activity as Co(tu)2Cl2> Ni(tu)2Cl2> Cu(tu)2Cl2> Zn(tu)2Cl2 in their silylation reactions.

Chlorozincate(II) acidic ionic liquid: Efficient and biodegradable silylation catalyst

A practical and highly efficient silylation of alcohol and phenol derivatives with hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) using acidic ionic liquids under mild reaction conditions is described. A series of Br?nsted as well as Br?nsted–Lewis acidic ionic liquids were prepared and their performance investigated for the silylation of a wide variety of alcohols and phenols with HMDS. Imidazole- as well as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone-based acidic ionic liquids have a higher catalytic activity for the protection of sensitive, hindered alcohols and phenols, thus providing an environmentally begin and versatile alternative to current acid catalysts. In addition, the acidic ionic liquids are reusable, being recovered easily and reused several times without significant deterioration in catalytic activity.
