Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

0.5 M isopropenylmagnesium bromide in THF (Aldrich, 365 mL, 182 mmol, 1.1 eq. to silane) was added dropwise at 0° C. to diisopropylchlorosilane (25 g, 166 mmol) in anhydrous THF (50 mL). The reaction mixture was heated to 40° C. overnight (15 hours), then cooled and quenched with water (50 mL) and dilute sulfuric acid (50 mL). Pentane (150 mL) was added and the organic layer was separated, washed repeatedly with water (8×50 mL), dried over MgSO4, and filtered. The solution was concentrated (carefully, product is volatile) on a rotary evaporator to yield 22.9 g of crude product as a light brown liquid. No further purification was performed.
