Description

Allyltrimethylsilane is an organometallic compound that can be used in a reaction vessel to perform allylation, which is the process of adding an allyl group (-CH=CH2) to a substrate. The addition of the allyl group to the substrate may result in asymmetric reactions due to the stereoselective nature of this reaction. Allyltrimethylsilane is often used as a precursor to form allyl compounds with other functionalities such as halides or nitriles.
The Friedel-Crafts reaction is one type of chemical reaction that can be carried out using allyltrimethylsilane. In this type of reaction, aliphatic hydrocarbons react with an organometallic species (such as allyltrimethylsilane) and a nucleophilic agent (such as hydrogen chloride). The nucleophilic attack on the carbon atom adjacent to the double bond leads to formation of alkene products.
