✦ Synopsis


Novel methodology for the generation of ct-silyl carbanion by the deprotonation of trimethylsilyl group with tertbutyllithium or LDA has been developed. This newly developed ct-lithiation protocol is based on the intramolecular pyridyl group coordination to stabilize the 0t-silyl carbanion, together with the inherent silicon 0t effect. The importance of the use of the 2-pyridyl group in 'pyridyl'-and 'silyl'-directed 0t-lithiation has been confirmed by the control experiments utilizing phenyltrimethylsilane and (3-pyridyl)trimethylsilane.
