Tandem Intramolecular Silylformylation−Crotylsilylation: Highly Efficient Synthesis of Polyketide Fragments

TLDR
A new dihydrosilane alcoholysis reaction has been developed, leading to a highly efficient sequence of reactions establishing up to three new stereocenters with good-to-excellent diastereoselectivity.
Abstract
Polyketide fragments may be rapidly and efficiently assembled in the tandem intramolecular silylformylation−crotylsilylation of alkenes and alkynes. The reactions establish up to three new stereocenters with good-to-excellent diastereoselectivity, and the use of the reaction in an iterative sense is demonstrated. In addition, a new dihydrosilane alcoholysis reaction has been developed, leading to a highly efficient sequence.

Development of β-keto 1,3-dithianes as versatile intermediates for organic synthesis

TL;DR: beta-Keto 1,3-dithianes can be generated by the double conjugate addition of dithiols to propargylic ketones, esters and aldehydes in excellent yields and can be converted to a range of functionalised oxygen-containing heterocycles that can be used in natural product synthesis.

Potassium tert-butoxide-catalyzed dehydrogenative Si-O coupling: reactivity pattern and mechanism of an underappreciated alcohol protection.

TL;DR: A comprehensive survey of common silanes provides a reliable tool for the predictability of their reactivity under defined reaction conditions and a transition state for the enantiospecific Si-O coupling step is suggested rationalizing the observed frontside attack and thus retention at the silicon atom.

The condensation reaction of trichlorosilane with allylic chlorides catalyzed by copper salts in the presence of a tertiary amine

TL;DR: In this paper, allyl trichlorosilane undergoes a smooth reaction at room temperature with allyl chloride, β-methallyl chloride, crotyl chloride and α-methyltaphyll chloride to give the corresponding allyltrichloro-silane in excellent yields in the presence of an equimolar amount of a tertiary amine and a catalytic amount of cuprous chloride.
