Application

tert-Butyldimethylsilyl chloride (TBDMSCl) is an organosilicon compound that can be used as a versatile protecting reagent for alcohols, amines, amides, and various carboxylic acids. It is also used in the preparation of isoxazoline N-oxides from α-bromonitroalkanes and olefins. TBDMSCl is used as a precursor that forms a silicon substrate for Ag/ZnO/graphene-based nanocomposites to form effective photocatalytic system for hydrogen production.

A strategy for the synthesis of isoxazoline-N-oxides (cyclic five-membered nitronates) from primary nitro compounds and olefins is described. The key step of the process involves 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of corresponding 1-bromosilyl nitronates with alkenes. [reaction: see text]
