Abstract

Oxyhalogenation reactions of a variety of alkynylsilanes were studied using oxone as mild oxidant and KCl, KBr, and KI as halogen sources. In this study, reaction of an alkynylsilane with oxone-KX (X = Cl or Br) produced trichloromethyl/tribromomethyl ketones in high yields. Under similar conditions, however, reactions of alkynylsilanes with oxone-KI were found to give exclusively 1,2,2-triiodovinyl derivatives in high yields. In this study, new methods were deveoped for effcient one-pot tranformation of alkynylsilanes into amides and esters by reaction with amines and alcohols respectively via trihalomethyl ketone.
