Synthesis and Photochemistry of 2-(α-Furyl)-2-(α-Thienyl) SHexamethyltrisilane

The synthesis of 2-(α-furyl)-2-(α-thienyl)hexamethyltrisilane is described. Photolysis of 2 in the presence of cyclohexene and methanol led to apparent radical reaction. It is proposed that the sulfur atom of thienyl group strongly stabilized an initially formed silyl radical. This idea was supporte...

Description
Summary:The synthesis of 2-(α-furyl)-2-(α-thienyl)hexamethyltrisilane is described. Photolysis of 2 in the presence of cyclohexene and methanol led to apparent radical reaction. It is proposed that the sulfur atom of thienyl group strongly stabilized an initially formed silyl radical. This idea was supported by identifying typical radical reaction products.
