Abstract
Phenyl chloroformate (1) reacts with the allylsilanes 2a–h in the presence of aluminium chloride to give the β,γ‐unsaturated phenyl esters 3a–h in 50–90% yield. While these reactions proceed in the usual manner with allylic inversion, (1,1‐dimethylallyl)trimethylsilane (2i) reacts with allyl retention to yield the 2,2‐dimethyl‐3‐butenoate 3i. Attempts to use 1 for the phenoxycarbonylation of arenes were not successful.
