Chlorotrimethylsilane → HCID 21709893, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of bis(2-(tert-butyldimethylsiloxy)indenyl)ethane (10.38 g, 20.0 mmol) in THF (100 mL) at −20° C. was added dropwise n-BuLi (16.1 mL of a 2.5 M solution in hexane, 40.2 mmol) and the reaction mixture was stirred for 3 hours at room temperature. To the resulting solution was added dropwise chlorotrimethylsilane (6.85 g, 63.0 mmol, 8.0 mL) at 0° C. After completed addition the reaction mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature and the solvents were evaporated. The remaining orange solid was extracted with CH2Cl2 and filtrated through celite. The solvent was evaporated and the product was dissolved in Et2O (150 mL). Concentration and cooling to 0° C. gave 10.29 g (77.6%) of a 2:1 diastereomeric mixture of the title compound as off-white crystals.
