{ALF} Reagent for silylation of hydroxyl functions (see Appendix 4), giving silyl ethers more stable to aqueous hydrolysis e.g. during work-up, than TMS. Various conditions have been used for the introduction of the group:

{ALF} Acidic ion-exchange resin: Tetrahedron Lett., 21, 137 (1980); NBS in DMSO: Synthesis, 234 (1980); BF3 etherate: Synth. Commun., 9, 295 (1979); FeCl3 or SnCl2 in acetonitrile: Synth. Commun., 20, 757 (1990); K 10 clay in aqueous methanol: J. Org. Chem. 61, 9026 (1996); DMSO-water at 90o; many other groups unaffected: Tetrahedron Lett., 38, 495 (1997).
