Abstract

Substituted arenes flanked by two bulky triethylsilyl groups were regiospecifically lithiated at the 5-position with nBuLiPMDTA at 25 degrees C. The resulting aryllithiums reacted with a broad range of electrophiles such as ketones, isocyanates, Weinreb amides, allyl bromides, and CO2 at 25 degrees C. These bis-silylated arenes were then converted in simple reaction sequences into silyl-free tetrasubstituted arenes. This remote lithiation was extended to 2,6-bis(triethylsilyl)pyridine as well as 3,3-bis(triethylsilyl)biphenyl.
