13. 3Si group to be almost orthogonal to the C=C, whereas the distal allylic C-O bond is not expected to suffer such a restriction. Since the oxidative addition of Pd(0) to allylic acetates is known to be operative only if the substrate can adopt an orthogonal C=C/C-O disposition (ref. 7b) it appears that the silylated substrates 6 might be intrinsically biased to expel the vicinal rather than the distal allylic leaving group.

16. 1H NMR of the crude products as well as TLC analysis indicate complete disappearance of the starting material and the absence of other possible regio- or stereoisomers of 7. Partial decomposition of the starting material as polymeric material is thus likely.
