Iodine Rearrangements of Tetraallylsilane and Synthesis of Silicon-Stereogenic Organosilanes.

ABSTRACT: Tetraallylsilane can undergo either a mono or double rearrangement when treated with iodine (I₂). The extent of rearrangement depends on the equivalents of I₂ used, where 1 equivalent gives high yields of mono-rearranged products and excess (e.g., 3 equivalents) causes double rearrangement to occur. This transformation can be applied to the synthesis of potentially valuable silicon-stereogenic organosilanes.
