Abstract

(Matrix presented) The geometrical isomers of 6-ethylidenedioxadisilacyclohexane were prepared by intramolecular hydrosilylation of an unsymmetrical disiloxane by the use of Pt (syn) and Ru (anti) catalysts. This new class organosilicon reagents underwent cross-coupling reactions with a range of aryl iodides to afford (E)- and (Z)-trisubstituted allylic alcohols in a highly stereospecific fashion.
