Abstract

A simple, fast and efficient method for allylation and propargylation of chlorosilanes through zinc mediation and ultrasound promotion is reported. As a direct application of the resulting bis-allylsilanes, three novel, constrained sila amino acids are prepared for the first time. The design and synthesis of the constrained sila analogue of GABA (γ-amino butyric acid) is a highlight of this work.
