Synthesis of Allylsilanes via Nickel-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of Silicon Nucleophiles with Allyl Alcohols

NiCl2(PMe3)2-catalyzed reaction of allyl alcohols with silylzinc reagents, including PhMe2SiZnCl, Ph2MeSiZnCl, and Ph3SiZnCl, was performed, achieving allylsilanes in high yields. Aryl- and heteroaryl-substituted allyl alcohols, (E)-3-arylprop-2-en-1-ols, 1-aryl-prop-2-en-1-ols, and (E)-1-phenylpent-1-en-3-ol can be employed in the transformation. A range of functional groups as well as heteroaryl groups were tolerated. Reaction exhibited high regioselectivity and E/Z-selectivity when 1- or 3-aryl-substituted allyl alcohols were used as the substrates. Reaction of chiral allyl alcohol, (S,E)-1-phenylpent-1-en-3-ol, yielded a configuration-inversion product (R,E)-dimethyl(phenyl)(1-phenylpent-1-en-3-yl)silane.

Rhenium complex-catalyzed carbon-carbon formation of alcohols and organosilicon compounds

The coupling reactions of allylic and benzylic alcohols and allyltrimethylsilane are efficiently catalyzed by a rhenium complex to give the corresponding 1,5-dienes and alkenes in moderate to good yields. Similarly, alcohols were coupled with ketene silyl acetals to form the corresponding esters.

Catalytic coupling of N-benzylic sulfonamides with silylated nucleophiles at room temperature

In the presence of 2-10 mol% of Tf2NH, a range of N-benzylic sulfonamides smoothly react with allylic, propargylic, benzylic, or hydrido silanes at room temperature via sp3 carbon-nitrogen bond cleavage to afford structurally diverse products in moderate to excellent yields and with high chemo- and regioselectivity.

Direct coupling reaction between alcohols and silyl compounds: Enhancement of Lewis acidity of Me3SiBr using InCl3

The combination of InCl3 and Me3SiBr provided an enhanced Lewis acid system that can be used to promote a wide range of direct coupling reactions between alcohols and silyl nucleophiles in non-halogenated solvents, such as hexane or MeCN. The enhanced Lewis acidity of this system was measured by the 13C NMR in terms of the coordination to an alcohol. Moreover, the interaction between Me3SiBr and the In(III) species was revealed by 29Si NMR spectral analysis. Highly chemoselective allylations toward a hydroxyl moiety over ketone and acetoxy ones have been demonstrated.

Direct substitution of the hydroxy group in alcohols with silyl nucleophiles catalyzed by indium trichloride

Straightforward substitution: An excellent combination of a silyl nucleophile and indium catalyst was used to accomplish the dehydroxylation/ alkylation of alcohols under nearly neutral conditions (see scheme, Si = silyl group) even though this type of reaction usually requires at least an equimolar amount of acid.

Reductive Alkylation/Arylation of Arylcarbinols and Ketones with Organosilicon Compounds

Arylcarbinols react with certain organosilanes in the presence of boron trifluoride to yield hydrocarbons resulting from transfer of an R group from silicon to carbon.The transfer works well with aryl- and allylsilanes and fails with alkylsilanes.Allylation of ionizable carbinols is sometimes accompanied by cation-mediated oligomerization.This can be offset by converting the carbinols in question to their respective allyldimethylsilyl ethers followed by rearrangement of the ethers with BF3.While diaryl ketones are sluggishly bisallylated, the corresponding ketals undergo smooth bisallylation at 0 deg C with allytrimethylsilane/BF3/CH2Cl2.
