Scheme 3. Tamao-Fleming Oxidation.

Scheme 3

aHydrosilylation of ester: [Ir(cod)OMe]2 (1.0 mol %), Et2SiH2 (4.0 equiv), heptane (0.5 M), 60 °C, 48 h, N2. bC–H silylation step: [Ir(cod)OMe]2 (2.0 mol %), Me4Phen (6.0 mol %), nbe (1.5 equiv), THF (0.1 M), 100 °C, 16 h, N2. cOxidation step: KHCO3 (4.0 equiv), KF (4.0 equiv), 50% aqueous H2O2 (10 equiv), MeOH, 60 °C, 2 h. dDetermined by 1H NMR spectroscopy using CH2Br2 as internal standard. eOverall isolated yield for the steps 1–3.
