摘要:
A study was carried out on the cyclization-elimination of 2-phenyldimethylsiloxy-4,6-di(tert-butyl)phenol, which very selectively leads to the formation of benzene and dimethyl[3,5-di(tert-butyl)-o-phenylenedioxy]silicon. This reaction is described by a first-order kinetic equation. The acceleration of the reaction in the presence of organic bases is related to their catalytic action.
