title: One-step preparation of functionalized (E)-vinylsilanes from aldehydes.
abstract: Functionalized (E)-vinylsilanes have been prepared in one step from a wide range of aldehydes, via a chromium(II)-mediated olefination with novel dihalomethylsilane reagents, in moderate to excellent yields and with excellent stereoselectivity.
