Abstract
Mg-promoted cross-coupling of aromatic carbonyl compounds with trimeth ylsilyl chloride (TMSCl) in DMF at room temperature brought about redu ctive carbon-silicon bond formation to give the corresponding alpha-tr imethylsilylalkyl trimethylsilyl ethers selectively in good yields. Th e reaction may be initiated through electron transfer from Mg metal to the carbonyl compounds.
