Silane iodomethyl

TABLE 22. Reduction potentials of (iodomethyl)silanes and related compounds96... 

The course of this reaction is analogous to that of the corresponding reactions with simple silanes such as (chloromethyl)aryl dimethylsilanes (16) and (chloro- or iodomethyl) dimethylsilanes (93), although in these it is aryl or hydride migration that leads to rearrangement. 

Alternative Routes to Substituted (2-Phenylsulfonylethyl)-trimethylsilanes. Although the fluoride-induced elimination is a reliable and efficient method for synthesizing alkenes, the requisite silyl sulfone precursors are often better prepared by methods which avoid the use of (2). For example, eq 3 illustrates an alternative synthesis of 2,2-dialkyl-2-(phenylsulfonylethyl)trimethyl-silanes involving alkylation of a lithio sulfone with (iodomethyl)-trimethylsilane. ...
