title = "Reactivity of Seven-Membered-Ring trans -Alkenes with Electrophiles",
abstract = "Seven-membered-ring trans -alkenes containing a silicon-oxygen bond reacted rapidly with oxygen gas and electron-deficient alkenes and alkynes to give products with high selectivity. Addition of an electron-donating substituent or incorporating additional strain increased the reactivity by over two orders of magnitude. These results indicate that release of strain is not the only driving force for reactivity.",
