  • The reactions of ${\beta}-aryl-{\alpha},{\beta}-epoxy$ silanes with magnesium bromide or magnesium iodide in the presence of excess magnesium in ether at room temperature afforded vinylsilanes in 18-100% yields. E-Vinylsilanes were predominant over Z-isomers (> 80%) regardless of the stereochemistry of ${\alpha},{\beta}-epoxy$ silanes.
