Silylformylations intermolecular

In the first rhodium-catalyzed carbonylative silylcarbocyclization (CO-SiCaC), which was reported in 1992 [12, 13], silylcyclopentenone 9 was isolated as a minor product in the silylformylation of 1-hexyne 8 (Scheme 7.4). Under optimized conditions using Et3SiH and ( BuNC)4RhCo(CO)4 as the catalyst at 60°C, 9 is formed in 54% yield [13]. A possible mechanism proposed for this intermolecular CO-SiCaC is shown in Scheme 7.4 [13]. In this mechanism, the formation of 9 is proposed to proceed via in-... 

This type of intramolecular silylformylation is applicable to 4-silyloxy-l,6-diyne 176 which gives 177 in good yields (Equation (31)). The remaining alkynyl moiety in 177 can further undergo intermolecular silylformylation. " ... 

In sharp contrast to simple alkenes that undergo silylcarbonylation, genuine silylformylation of an olefinic moiety is attained only by an intramolecular technique (Equation (33)). Since the most serious competitive reaetion is an intermolecular hydrosilylation reaction to form 192, the key for the successful transformation depends on an appropriate combination of substituents R and R. ... 

The silyl group in 311, prepared by intramolecular silylformylation, is intermolecularly substituted by a phenyl group by a palladium-catalyzed reaction with Phi to give coupled product 312 (Equation (56)). ... 

A combination of intermolecular silylformylation and cyclohydrocarbonylation provides an efficient route to pyrro-lizidine alkaloids. The regio- and diastereoselective Rh-catalyzed silylformylation of 5-ethynyl-2-pyrrolidinone 22 afforded (Z)-23 in an excellent yield. Subsequent reduction and protodesilylation, followed by protection of the...
