Abstract
For the simultaneous preparation of molecules having both the nucleoph ilic and electrophilic sites, allyl trimethylsilyl ethers as electroph ilic allylating reagents are studied. Allyl trimethylsilyl ethers reac t with allyl trimethylsilanes in the presence of a catalytic amount of ZnCl2 at room temperature to afford the corresponding 1,5-dienes in g ood yields.
