C. Moreau et al., HIGH-YIELD ELECTROSYNTHESIS OF FURYLCHLOROSILANES, SILYL AND SILANYLENE FURANS, Journal of organometallic chemistry, 570(1), 1998, pp. 147-154
The intensiostatic sacrificial anode technique proved to be efficient
for the silylation of 2-bromo- and 2,5-dibromofurans with trimethylchl
orosilane and diorganodichlorosilanes with high selectivity and versat
ility not accessible by pure chemical routes. Furylsilanes, bromofuryl
silanes, bis(furyl)silanes, bis(bromofuryl)silanes, furylchlorosilanes
, bis(silyl and chlorosilyl)furans, poly[(silanylene)furylene] oligome
rs and [1(4)]dimethylsila-2,5-furanocalixarene were obtained in good t
o high yields. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
