Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 0.50 g of hex-5-enyl 3,4-dimethoxycinnamate, 1.0 ml of toluene, 2.9 ml of triethoxysilane and 0.02 ml of a solution of 134 mg of hexachloro(IV) platinic acid hexahydrate in 10 ml of isopropanol is allowed to react overnight at 40° C. The reaction mixture is then cooled to room temperature and filtered over a silica gel pad and the filtrate is completely evaporated down. Chromatography of the residue over silica gel gives 6-triethoxysilanylhexyl 3,4-dimethoxycinnamate.
