Reaction Steps

A 250 ml roundboftom flask equipped with a condenser, stirrer, thermometer and dropping funnel with nitrogen inlet was charged with 100 ml of dimethylamine solution (2.0 M in THF, 0.20 mol) and cooled to 15° C. A solution of tetramethylcyclopentadienyl-dimethylsilylchloride in THF (10.1 g in 30 ml THF, 47 mmol) was added and the solution stirred for 16 hours allowing the temperature of the reaction mixture to rise to room temperature. A precipitate was filtered off and the solvent evaporated. The remaining residue was distilled at sub-atmospheric pressure (2.6 mbar) at 80-81° C. to obtain N,N-dimethylamino-dimethylsilyl-tetramethylcyclopentadiene (4.2 g). The product was characterized by GC, GC-MS, 13C and 1H NMR.
