Notes:
Photolysis of (ethoxy)silyl-, (propyloxy)silyl-, and (isopro-pyloxy)silyl-substituted diazoacetates 1a-c leads to tetrahydro-1,2-oxasiloles 2a-c by intramolecular C-H insertion of a carbene intermediate. Photochemical or catalytic decomposition of (allyloxysilyl)diazoacetates 3a-e results in intramolecular cyclopropanation which provides 3-oxa-2-silabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane systems 5a-e. In contrast, the thermal reaction of 3b-d gives rise to 2,5-dihydro-1,2-oxasiloles 4b-d, which are likely to be formed on a pyrazoline rather than a carbene route. For (3-butenyloxysilyl)diazoacetate 3f, all modes of decomposition generate the 3-oxa-2-silabicyclo[4.1.0]heptane system 7. Fluoride-induced cleavage of the bicyclic systems 5b-d provides trans-2-hydroxyalkyl-1-cyclopropanecarboxylates 9 diastereospecifically.
