Abstract

A copper-catalyzed efficient regioselective silylation reaction of chloro-substituted allenyl-Bdan was developed. Under mild reaction conditions, allenyl and propargyl silane compounds can be selectively obtained in moderate to high yields by adjusting the bases and solvents used in the reactions. This study offers direct and efficient methods for synthesizing multifunctionalized allenyl and propargyl silane compounds from the same initial material of chloro-substituted allenyl-Bdan.
