title: Syntheses and comparison of three reagents for allyldimethylsilylation of prostaglandins and steroids: a gas chromatographic method.
abstract: Three reagents used for allyldimethylsilylation of prostaglandins and steroids have been prepared: N,O-bis(allyldimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide, N-methylallyl-dimethylsilyltrifluoroacetamide and allyldimethylsilyl-N,N-diphenylamine. The reaction kinetics of the reagents have been studied at room temperature in several solvents, and the optimal conditions for the derivatization of prostaglandins and steroids are discussed.
