Abstract
The combination of hexamethyldisilane and a catalytic amount of [PdCl(eta3-C3H5)]2-PPh3 was found to be effective for the trimethylsilylation of alcohols, where both of the two trimethylsilyl groups of hexamethyldisilane were transferred to alcohols without coproduction of any stoichiometric amount of byproduct but H2.
