Pentaco-ordinate silicon compounds in synthesis: chemo- and stereo-selective reduction of carbonyl compounds using trialkoxy-substituted silanes and alkali metal alkoxides
TL;DR: Carbonyl compounds are reduced with trialkoxy-substituted silane to the corresponding alcohols chemo- and stereo-selectively in the presence of alkali metal alkoxide under mild conditions as discussed by the authors.
Allenylmethylsilane Derivative as a Synthetic Equivalent of 1,2,3-Butatriene: Synthesis and Reactions of Di-exo-methylenecyclobutanes and -cyclobutenes
TL;DR: In this article, 2-Methoxyallenylmethylsilane reacts with alkenes and alkynes in a [2+2] cycloaddition mode to give cyclobutanes and cyclobutenes, respectively.
Polyspiro disilacyclohexadienes a novel series of compounds showing spiroconjugation
TL;DR: In this paper, three unsaturated spirocompounds with silicon as spiro atom(s) have been prepared, which constitute the first series of polyspirene and show interesting spectral properties.
Regiospecific allylation of acetals with allylsilanes catalyzed by iodotrimethylsilane. Synthesis of homoallylethers
TL;DR: In this article, allylation of acetals with allyl-silanes is catalyzed by iodotrimethylsilane to give the corresponding homoallyl ethers, with regiospecific transposition of the allyl group.
