Pd-catalyzed coupling reaction of allyl and propargyl ethers with chlorosilanes
Pd-catalyzed synthesis of allylsilanes from chlorosilanes and allyl ethers is described. The reaction proceeds efficiently at room temperature by the use of phenyl or vinyl Grignard reagent in the presence of palladium catalysts. The present method can also be applied to synthesis of propargylsilanes by the use of propargyl ethers.
