a mild, efficient and fast method for the oxidation of alcohols and trimethylsilyl, tetrahydropyranyl and methoxymethyl ethers to their corresponding carbonyl compounds using cro3 in the presence of rice husk ash (rha) is reported. all reactions were performed at room temperature in high to excellent yields. a new, efficient and green catalyst, heterogeneous reaction conditions, easy work-up of...

A novel selective route to 1,1-bis(silyl)-1-alkenes has been developed. Sequential one-pot silylative coupling exo-cyclization of 1,2-bis(dimethylvinylsiloxy)ethane followed by the reaction with Grignard reagents leads to the desired 1,1-bis(silyl)ethenes, which are then efficiently coupled in the presence of silver nitrate and palladium acetate with aryl or alkenyl idodides to give the corresp...

Herein we report on a series of bulky bis(alkyl)- and bis(silyl)- substituted polysilanes. Moreover, performed desilylation dechlorination experiments with them. These compounds were characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, X-ray crystallography. It was found that the selective formation silyl mono- di-anions is crucial for successful isolation these utilized multiple ...
