A chemoselective method for the direct halogenation of different types of alcohols with halosilanes under catalyst- and solvent-free reaction conditions (SFRC) is reported. Various primary, secondary and tertiary benzyl alcohols and tertiary alkyl alcohols were directly transformed to the corresponding benzyl and alkyl halides, respectively, using chlorotrimethylsilane (TMSCl) and bromotrimethylsilane (TMSBr).

A number of silicon-substituted analogues of ethynylestradiol that exhibit modified and enhanced biological activities have been synthesized.Particularly noteworthy are a group of estradiol analogues that exhibit high antifertility potency and markedly reduced estrogenic activity.The best compounds synthesized are 17α-estradiol (5) and 17α-estradiol (33), which show a separation of antifertility from estrogenic activity in the rat.The results of structure-activity studies indicate a good correlation between the observed biological activities and the calculated van der Waals volumes of the three variable silicon substituents.
