Abstract

A facile synthesis of 1-silyl-substituted 1,3-butadienes is based on a [RuHCl(CO)(PCy3)2]-catalyzed silylative coupling of terminal (E)-1,3-dienes with vinylsilanes. The reaction provides (E,E)-dienylsilanes in a highly stereoselective fashion with elimination of ethylene as a single byproduct.
