Scheme 7.8 Propagation steps for allylation reaction us<strong>in</strong>g allylsilanes<br />

(Reaction 7.74) [84]. That is, (TMS) 3Si: radical added to the double bond <strong>of</strong><br />

allyl sulfides, giv<strong>in</strong>g rise to a radical <strong>in</strong>termediate that undergoes b-scission with<br />

the ejection <strong>of</strong> the thiyl radical. Hydrogen abstraction from the silane completes<br />

the cycle <strong>of</strong> these cha<strong>in</strong> reactions. 2-Functionalized allyl tris(trimethylsilyl)silanes<br />

(71) have been employed <strong>in</strong> the radical-based allylation reactions.<br />

<strong>Radical</strong> allylations with allylsilanes 71 occur under mild conditions <strong>in</strong> good<br />

to excellent yields, provided that the radical precursor and the silane have the<br />

appropriate electronic pair<strong>in</strong>g [85]. The two examples <strong>in</strong> Reactions (7.75) and<br />

(7.76) show the reactivity match<strong>in</strong>g <strong>of</strong> the allylat<strong>in</strong>g agent with the radical.<br />

These reactions <strong>of</strong>fer t<strong>in</strong>-free alternatives for the transformations that are<br />

currently carried out by allyl stannanes.<br />
