Reaction Steps

A mixture of 0.125 ml (1.0 mmol) of 1-phenylpropyne, 0.192 ml (1.2 mmol) of triethylsilane, and 9.9 mg (0.01 mmol) of chlorodium tris(triphenylphosphine) rhodium chloride was heated in a sealed tube at 100° C. for 16 hours while being stirred. GLC analysis of the reaction mixture revealed that (Z)-β-triethylsilyl-β-methylstyrene, (E)-β-triethylsilyl-β-methylstyrene, (Z)-α-triethylsilyl-β-methylstyrene, and (E)-α-triethylsilyl-β-methylstyrene were produced in a yield of 4%, 33%, 7%, and 56%, respectively.
