146 4.4.27 Product Subclass 27: Æ-Haloalkylsilanes N. J. Lawrence General Introduction Æ-Haloalkylsilanes are primarily used in organic synthesis to prepare Æ-metalated silanes, which react with a variety of electrophiles. The nucleophilic substitution of the halogen atom provides a second important mode of reaction. The general patterns of reactivity and synthetic importance of Æ-haloalkylsilanes are revealed in the reviews of the use of the structurally simple examples of the class, such as (chloromethyl)trimethylsilane, [1,2] (chloromethyl)(isopropoxy)dimethylsilane, [3] and (1-chloroethyl)trimethylsilane. [4] By far the most commonly encountered examples of the class are Æ-bromo- and Æ-chloroalkylsilanes. The use of iodides, such as (iodomethyl)trimethylsilane, [5] is less common and fluorides rare with one important exception, trimethyl(trifluoromethyl)silane (Ruppert s reagent). Some of the most important applications of Æ-haloalkylsilanes are discussed in Applications of Product Subclass 27. The general approaches to the synthesis of Æ-haloalkylsilanes are illustrated in Scheme 1. Arguably the most important route (via disconnections a) involves the combination of an alkylsilane and the halogen. Often this is achieved using a radical reaction (a 1 ). Several Æ-bromo- and chloroalkylsilanes are prepared in this manner. The incorporation of a good leaving group at the Æ-position of the alkylsilane allows nucleophilic substitution using a halide (a 3 ). Fluorides and iodides, in addition to chlorides and bromides, can be accessed using this method. The reaction of an electrophilic halogenating agent with an Æ-silyl anion is another method to form Æ-haloalkylsilanes (a 2 ). Alkylation of the anion derived from a chloromethyl- or bromomethylsilane is an effective way of achieving the synthesis of Æ-haloalkylsilanes via disconnection b. Some simple halosilanes also bearing Æ-haloalkyl groups are transformed via reaction with nucleophiles to other Æ-haloalkylsilanes (disconnection c). Silylation of a carbenoid-type haloalkyl anion also offers a versatile method (disconnection d). The following methods (1–6) illustrate these approaches in more detail.

However, since they can function as alkylating agents in a synthetic sense, the more-reactive compounds, such as Æ-iodoalkylsilanes, should be treated with care. Æ-Haloalkylsilanes are stable at room temperature and can be purified by standard techniques; Æ-iodoalkylsilanes should be protected from sunlight. Æ-Haloalkylsilanes have no special spectroscopic properties. However, representative NMR shifts [6–8] and coupling data for the series of (halomethyl)trimethylsilanes are summarized in Table 1. The analysis of Æ-fluoroalkylsilanes via 19 F NMR clearly presents an additional method of characterization.
