Chemistry of 1,3,5-tris (trimethylsiloxy) -1-methoxyhexa-1,3,5-triene

The title compound was synthesized and its chemistry studied for the first time. It reacts with carbon electrophiles initially at its $ epsilon$-position. The condensation with aliphatic imidazolides or similar acylating agents furnished methyl 6-alkyl-2,4-dihydroxy benzoates in a 5C + 1C fashion. Reaction with aromatic imidazolides, also in a 5C + 1C manner, gave unsymmetrical biphenyls with the 2-carbomethoxy-3,5-dihydroxyphenyl moiety. A regiocontrolled synthesis of naphthalene derivatives was developed by reaction with the appropriate 1,3,5-tris-electrophiles in a 5C + 5C fashion.
