Reaction Steps

Firstly, dist. THF (1 mL) was added to Mg (2 g, 11 mmol) that has been activated under vacuum, and subsequently a small amount of I2 was added to the resultant mixture to obtain a mixed solution. Then, the activation of the Mg in the mixed solution was checked. Once such activation was confirmed, the mixed solution was added with dist. THF (16 mL). After that, at room temperature, a solution containing 4-bromostyrene (2 g, 11 mmol) and dist. THF (5 mL) was added dropwise to obtain a reaction solution. Then, the obtained reaction solution was stirred under a nitrogen atmosphere and a reflux condition (at 80° C.) for 20 hours to obtain 4-styrenemagnesium bromide. After that, TEOS (2.2 mL, 8.8 mmol)/dist. THF (10 mL) was added dropwise to the obtained 4-styrenemagnesium bromide under a nitrogen atmosphere at room temperature (25° C.) to obtain a reaction mixture. Subsequently, the obtained reaction mixture was stirred under a nitrogen atmosphere and a reflux condition (80° C.) for 15 hours, and then was left standing to cool to room temperature. The cooled reaction mixture was added with distilled hexane (dist. hexane: 50 mL) to make the excess Mg salt be precipitated. The salt thus formed was removed through a celite filtration process, and an organic layer was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain a residue. Then, the obtained residue was purified through a reduced-pressure distillation process (0.01 mmHg, 80° C.) to obtain 4-(triethoxysilyl) styrene (176 mg, 6% yield).
