摘要：

General reaction conditions for the synthesis of aryl(trialkoxy)silanes from aryl Grignard and lithium reagents and tetraalkyl orthosilicates (Si(OR)(4)) have been developed. Ortho-, meta-, and para-substituted bromoarenes underwent efficient metalation and silylation at low temperature to provide aryl siloxanes. Mixed results were obtained with heteroaromatic substrates: 3-bromothiophene, 3-bromo-4-methoxypyridine, 5-bromoindole, and N-methyl-5-bromoindole underwent silylation in good yield, whereas a low yield of siloxane was obtained from 2-bromofuran, and 2-bromopyridine failed to give silylated product. The synthesis of siloxanes via organolithium and magnesium reagents was limited by the formation of di- and triarylated silanes (Ar(2)Si(OR)(2) and Ar(3)SiOR, respectively) and dehalogenated (Ar-H) byproducts. Silylation at low temperature gave predominantly monoaryl siloxanes, without requiring a large excess of the electrophile. Optimal reaction conditions for the synthesis of siloxanes from aryl Grignard reagents entailed addition of arylmagnesium reagents to 3 equiv of tetraethyl- or tetramethyl orthosilicate at -30 degrees C in THF. Aryllithium species were silylated using 1.5 equiv of tetraethyl- or tetramethyl orthosilicate at -78 degrees C in ether.
