Preparative Methods. As discussed above, one of the simplest methods of preparation of 3-acetoxy-2-trimethylsilyhnethyl-1-propene (1) is the direct silylation of the C,0-dianion derived from methallyl alcohol, followed by 0-desilylation and subsequent acetylation (eq 1 However, because of laboratory safety concerns (use of large quantities of 10 M n-BuLi) one might choose another more user-friendly route such as the copper-mediated conversion of 2-chloromethylallyl chloride to 2-chloro-methylallyl trichlorosilane (5), followed by methylation and nucleophilic displacement of the chloride by an acetate (eq 18). Moreover, the intermediate 3-chloro-2-trimethylsilylmethyl-l-propene (6) is also a useful reagent in organic synthesis and in many aspects has similar reactivity to 1. Alternatives to 1 include the carbonate derivatives 7.
