A Base-Stabilized Sila-β-Lactone and a Donor/Acceptor-Stabilized Silanoic Acid
Abstract
A stable base-stabilized sila-β-lactone was successfully synthesized and fully characterized. Interestingly, this sila-β-lactone shows a very unique reactivity toward ethanol, leading to the formation of an isolable donor/acceptor-stabilized silanoic acid.
