Synthesis of cyclic alkenyl dimethylsiloxanes from alkynyl benzyldimethylsilanes and application in polyene synthesis

Cyclic dimethylalkenylsiloxanes, useful motifs for (Z)-selective Hiyama cross-coupling, are accessed from alkynyl benzyldimethylsilanes featuring adjacent allylic or homoallylic oxygen substituents by semihydrogenation/debenzylation/cyclization. While formation of 5- and 6-membered rings can be achi...
