Asymmetric Synthesis and Catalysis

Reaction of esters with the reagent prepared from CeCl3 and TMSCH2MgCl in THF, followed by deoxysilylation on silica gel, effects efficient conversion to allylsilanes. Methyl 1-adamantane carboxylate, a sterically hindered ester, does not react under these conditions.
