-Trichlorosilylstyrene oligomers
Abstract
Under cationic conditions using triflic acid as the initiator, it is possible to oligomerize β-trichlorosilylstyrene 2 to low molecular weight oligomers 14 with a maximum degree of polymerization of about 9. Termination of the process was shown to occur by an intramolecular Friedel–Crafts reaction, leading to highly functionalized, indane-terminated oligomers 9, 12, etc. At lower temperatures, the reaction is diastereoselective. The …
