Abstract
Abstract Lithium tetrachloropalladate(II), lithium dichlorodiacetatopalladate(II); and palladium(II) acetate cleave allylsilanes in hydroxylic solvents to give allyl-palladium complexes and organic cleavage products. The overall reaction is not catalytic in palladium. A mechanism is proposed in which a rapid, stoichiometric metal-ion cleavage produces an allyl-metal complex and chlorosilane. The latter then reacts further with any hydroxylic moiety that is present to give siloxanes and disiloxanes. The HCl produced from this reaction of chlorosilanes then catalyzes the further decomposition of allylsilane.
