19. Requirement for use of more than theoretical amount (probably 1 or 2 equiv mol) of Mg-metal may be attributed to low efficiency of electron transfer in a heterogenous reaction system between Mg-metal and starting substrate and some side-reactions such as Mg-promoted dimerization of chlorosilanes to disilanes.

26. The present coupling of aromatic alkyl ketones (1h, 1i, 1q ) with bis(chlorodimethylsilyl)ethane (3 ) gave the corresponding cyclic coupling products (6h, 6i, 6q ) in similar yields, although that of 1i with TMSCl gave the corresponding product (5i ) in only 14% yield, accompanying unusual formation of 4-trimethylsilylpropiophenone (20%). This surprising phenomenon may be partially elucidated by much higher reactivity of TMSCl in comparison with bis(chlorodimethylsilyl)ethane (3 ), as shown in unusual attack of TMSCl to the p-position of reactive anion radical intermediate of 1i.
27. Formation of a variety of by-products and tarric materials resulted in relatively low yield of the desired products (6 and 7 ) in Mg-promoted cyclization of aromatic ketones with dichlorosilanes (3 and 4 ).

29. In this reactions, three kind of roles for TMSCl may be postulated; that is, activation of 1 as electrophiles by coordination to the oxygen atom of the carbonyl group, stabilization of anion intermediates, and activation of Mg metal.
30. Ring strain of the cyclic products from the reaction of aromatic alkyl ketones (1 ) with bis(chlorodimethylsilyl) compounds (3, 4 ) may be an additional effect for their lower yield.
