Abstract

Due to its ability to favor R-carbanion formation, benzotriazole has proven to be a good tool for the introduction of silicon into organic molecules. 1 The potentially powerful transformations attributed to the presence of silicon in organic molecules, thus, become available. One of the most useful transformations in this category is the formation of an alkene by vicinal elimination of silicon (for comprehensive reviews of these types of ...
