Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Excess HSiCl3 (0.09 mL, 8.609×10−4 mol) and a few grains of dicyclopentadienylplatinum(II) chloride (Cp2PtCl2) catalyst were added in a glove box to a solution of Compound 4 (0.050 g, 8.609×10−5 mol) in about 10 mL anhydrous toluene. The solution was transferred to a Schlenk line where it was heated to 60° C. with stirring and left under static N2 to prevent evaporation of the HSiCl3. The reaction progress was monitored by 1H NMR, and cooled to room temperature after 42 h. Toluene and excess HSiCl3 were next removed in vacuo. Upon trituration of the crude product with 15 mL of a dry 1:1 toluene:pentane solution, a solid formed and was removed via cannula filtration.
