Reaction Steps

In a round-bottom flask, 3-allyloxy-3-methoxycarbonyl-pentanedioic acid dimethyl ester (2.74 g, 10 mmol) was introduced in 25 mL of dry toluene, followed by triethoxysilane (2.63 g, 16 mmol). Hydrosilylation catalyst, platinum-divinyltetramethyldisiloxane complex in xylenes solution (0.02 mL), was added and the mixture was stirred at 80° C. in a dry atmosphere for 16 hours. The volatiles were then removed in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in dry dichloromethane, a spatula of activated carbon was added, and the mixture was stirred for 3 hours under nitrogen. The mixture was then filtered over a 0.45 μm Teflon filter and the solution was evaporated to dryness to yield the title compound (3.75 g, 86%) as an oil that was used without further purification.
