The allylsilane, 6,6-dimethoxy-2-(trimethylsilylmethyl)hex-1-ene (2) gives 3-methylenecyclohexyl methyl ether (7) on treatment with tin (IV) chloride, whereas cyclisation of the corresponding compound without the silyl group (1) was known to give five products (5)-(6).The synthesis of the allylsilane (2) is described.
