Abstract
Allylsilylation allows to install both silyl and allyl groups onto a carbon-carbon double bond directly. Proton-exchanged montmorillonite showed excellent catalytic performances for the allylsilylation of alkenes. Isolation of the reaction intermediate on the montmorillonite surface helped to investigate the reaction mechanism.
