Reaction Steps

Potassium hydride (containing mineral oil; the content of sodium hydride: 35%) (3.00 g) was suspended in tetrahydrofuran (18 ml), and then 4-methylaniline (0.056 g) was dropwise added to the suspension at 10° C., followed by stirring for 10 minutes. Thereafter, the solution of tetramethylcyclopentadiene (1.22 g) dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (6 ml) was dropwise added to the suspension, and heated to 25° C., followed by stirring for one hour. Thus, tetramethylcyclopentadienylpotassium was obtained. To this solution, the solution of (2-allyloxy-3-tert.-butyl-5-methylphenyl)chlorodimethylsilane (3.99 g; purity: 70.7%; pure compound: 2.82 g) dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (3 ml) was dropwise added, followed by stirring for one hour.
