Silyl groups syntheses

At this point, completion of the total synthesis required removal of the three acetonides and the two silyl protecting groups (Scheme 18). Removal of the silyl groups with TBAF and subsequent treatment to acidic deprotection conditions led to complete deprotection of 110, but failed to provide filipin III. It was sus-... 

Monomers contained terminal phenylacetylenes protected with trimethyl-silyl groups and aryl iodides masked as N,hT-dialkyltriazenes. A typical PAM synthesis involved three basic transformations (Scheme 12) ... 

Organolithium reagents stabilized by ct-silyl groups have been recently used for the synthesis of mononuclear derivatives such as compounds 8, 9 which the bulky (PhMe2Si>3C and (Me3Si>3C as ligands directly attached to the mercury center.30 Other examples include the dialkylmercury products shown in Equations (2) and (3).31 32... 

The reaction of silylborane with 1-halo-l-lithio-l-alkenes yields 1-boryl-l-silyl-l-alkenes via borate formation followed by 1,2-migration of silyl group (Equation (90)).76,240 The mechanism seems to be closely related to that proposed for the silaboration of isocyanide (Figure 2). Vinyl-substituted carbenoids, l-chloro-l-lithio-2-alkenes, react with silylpinacolborane to give l-boryl-l-silyl-2-alkanes in good yield (Equation (91)).241 This methodology is applied to the synthesis of l-boryl-l-silyl-2-cyclobutene.2 2 Similar reactions are carried out with other carbenoid... 

The examples shown in Scheme 5 demonstrate the potential utility of these stereoselective alkylation technologies in synthesis. Thus, preparation of rac-14 through catalytic RCM of rac-13 (85% yield) and subsequent Zr-catalyzed resolution of the resulting racemic TBS-protected oxepin affords (S)-23 after silyl group deprotection. Diastereoselective alkylation with nBuMgBr affords (S)-24... 

The first reported synthesis of hydroxyurea (24) consists of the condensation of hy-droxylamine with potassium cyanate (Scheme 7.14) [87]. Condensation of hydroxy-lamine with ethyl carbamate also gives pure hydroxyurea in good yield after recrystallization (Scheme 7.14) [88]. Nitrogen-15 labeled hydroxyurea provides a useful tool for studying the NO-producing reactions of hydroxyurea and can be prepared by the condensation of N-15 labeled hydroxylamine with either potassium cyanate or trimethylsilyl isocyanate followed by silyl group removal (Scheme 7.14) [89, 90]. Addition of hydroxylamine to alkyl or aryl isocyanates yields alkyl or aryl N-hydroxyureas (Scheme 7.14) [91, 92]. The condensation of amines with aromatic N-hydroxy carbamates also produces N-substituted N-hydroxyureas (Scheme 7.14) [93]. 

Studies on the electrochemical oxidation of silyl-substituted ethers have uncovered a rich variety of synthetic application in recent years. Since acetals, the products of the anodic oxidation in the presence of alcohols, are readily hydrolyzed to carbonyl compounds, silyl-substituted ethers can be utilized as efficient precursors of carbonyl compounds. If we consider the synthetic application of the electrooxidation of silyl-substituted ethers, the first question which must be solved is how we synthesize ethers having a silyl group at the carbon adjacent to the oxygen. We can consider either the formation of the C-C bond (Scheme 15a) or the formation of the C-O bond (Scheme 15b). The formation of the C Si bond is also effective, but this method does not seem to be useful from a view point of organic synthesis because the required starting materials are carbonyl compounds. 

Silyl enol ethers are powerful intermediates in organic synthesis. Reactions of silyl enol ethers with various electrophiles provide effective methods for the synthesis of various carbonyl compounds. In this section we will briefly touch on the electrochemical reactions of silyl enol ethers and related compounds. The electrochemical behaviour of silyl enol ethers is expected to be closely related to that of allylsilanes and benzylsilanes because silyl enol ethers also have a silyl group ft to the re-system.

The synthesis of chiral liquid-crystalline allenes was reported by Tschierske and co-workers (Scheme 4.10) [14]. An asymmetric reduction of 41 with Alpine borane was a key step to an enantioenriched allene 44. After removal of the silyl group, the allenic alcohol was etherified by the Mitsunobu method to give 45, the first liquid-crystalline allene derivatives. 

It has been reported that (TMS)3SiCl can be used for the protection of primary and secondary alcohols [55]. Tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl ethers are stable to the usual conditions employed in organic synthesis for the deprotection of other silyl groups and can be deprotected using photolysis at 254 nm, in yields ranging from 62 to 95%. Combining this fact with the hydrosilylation of ketones and aldehydes, a radical pathway can be drawn, which is formally equivalent to the ionic reduction of carbonyl moieties to the corresponding alcohols.
