19F NMR Studies of the Dearylation of Octaphenylcyclotetrasilane By Trifluoromethanesulfonic

The chemo- and stereoselectivity of the dearylation reaction of octaphenylcyclotetrasilane with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid was studied using 19F NMR. Up to four triflate groups could be easily introduced to the ring. Substitution of the fifth phenyl group was accompanied by ring cleavage. Dearyla...

Description
Summary:The chemo- and stereoselectivity of the dearylation reaction of octaphenylcyclotetrasilane with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid was studied using 19F NMR. Up to four triflate groups could be easily introduced to the ring. Substitution of the fifth phenyl group was accompanied by ring cleavage. Dearylation competes with the exchange of silyl triflates with triflic acid and leads to the thermodynamic distribution of stereoisomers.
