title: Silyl methallylsulfinates: efficient and powerful agents for the chemoselective silylation of alcohols, polyols, phenols and carboxylic acids.
abstract: Alcohols, phenols and carboxylic acids are silylated with very good yields in the presence of silyl methallylsulfinates under non-basic conditions and with the formation of volatile co-products.
