N-Methyl aminoethanol O-allyl ether S1 A 100 mL round-bottomed flask (rbf) equipped with a magnetic stirbar was charged with THF (15 mL), water (15 mL) and 2-(methylamino)ethanol (2.00 mL, 25.0 mmol). To the stirred solution exposed to air Boc2O (5.9 g, 27 mmol) was added in 4 portions within 10 min resulting in gas evolution. Several drops of sat. aq. NaHCO3 were added 40 min later to keep the pH around 8. Most of THF was removed on a rotary evaporator 4.5 h after the Boc2O addition. The residue was transferred into a separatory funnel using EtOAc, washed with aq. 2.5 M NH4Cl (20 mL) and brine. The organic phase was dried over MgSO4, filtered into a 500 mL rbf and stripped of volatiles on the rotary evaporator. Using hexane transferred the crude product into a pre-weighed 100 mL rbf, removed volatiles on the rotary evaporator (20 mm Hg). N-Methyl-N-Boc-aminoethanol was obtained as colorless oil: 4.26 g (97%). A 3-neck rbf equipped with a magnetic stirbar, a rubber septum, a glass stopcock (Teflon tape, central neck) and connected to a vacuum line was charged with 4.26 g of the protected amine (24.3 mmol). After evacuation and refill with nitrogen 90 mL of THF freshly distilled from sodium-benzophenone ketyl was added. The flask was placed in an ice-water bath. Approx. 25 min later quickly added 1.09 g of 60% NaH (27.2 mmol) in paraffin via the central neck. Approx. 20 min later added allyl bromide (2.15 mL, 24.8 mmol) with a syringe via the rubber septum followed by 0.4487 g of tetrabutylammonium iodide (1.21 mmol, 5 mol%) via the central neck. Approx. 2.5 h later removed the cold bath and let the reaction mixture stirring for 16 h under nitrogen. The flask was immersed in ice-water bath followed by careful addition of water (20 mL, audible sound). The mixture was transferred into a 250 mL separatory funnel followed by addition of EtOAc (50 mL) and extraction. The organic phase was set aside and the aqueous phase was extracted with fresh portion of EtOAc (40 mL). The organic phases were combined, washed with aq. 2.5 M NH4Cl (50 mL) and brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered into a 500 mL rbf and stripped of volatiles on the rotary evaporator leaving behind yellow oil, which was chromatographed on silica (normal phase, EtOAc-hexane, 1:3) furnishing 3.7916 g of N-Methyl-N-Boc-aminoethanol O-allyl ether as colorless oil (72% yield). N-Boc deprotection was achieved according to the method of Strazzolini et al.1 To a 200 mL rbf charged with a magnetic stirbar and CH2Cl2 (22 mL) and immersed in an ice-water bath added 1.48 mL of conc. H2SO4 (assumed to be 17.9 M, 26.5 mmol) with stirring. The central neck was plugged with a glass stopcock while a dropping funnel was attached to the side-neck. A solution of 3.79 g of N-Methyl-N-Boc-aminoethanol O-allyl ether (17.6 mmol) in 65 mL CH2Cl2 was added to the solution of acid dropwise from the addition funnel within 45 min followed by removal of cold bath and stirring at rt for 6 h. The dark purple mixture was transferred into a separatory funnel

and extracted with water (40 mL). The organic phase was extracted with additional 40 mL of water, after which the aqueous extracts were combined in a 200 mL Erlenmeyer flask and basified by addition of NaOH (3.245 g in 15 mL water) with stirring. The resulting solution was saturated with NaCl and extracted with three 50 mL portions of CH2Cl2. Combined extracts were dried over Na2SO4, filtered into a 500 mL rbf and stripped of the solvent on the rotary evaporator (200 mm Hg). The resulting yellowish oil was fractionated in vacuo using a one-piece distillation head and a receiving flask held at -50 oC. The title compound was obtained as colorless oil (1.2208 g, 60% yield). 1H NMR (CDCl3): 5.91 (ddt, J = 17.4; 10.4; 5.7, 1H, CH=CH2), 5.29-5.15 (m, 2H, CH=CH2), 3.98 (dt, J = 5.8; 1.4, 2H, OCH2CH=CH2), 3.56-3.52 (m, 2H, NCH2CH2O), 2.77-2.73 (m, 2H, NCH2CH2), 2.44 (s, 3H, NCH3), 1.65 (br s, 1H, NH). Synthesis of N-methyl aminoethanol O-propyltriethoxysilyl ether S2, First, S1 was converted to its N-TMS derivative via the procedure by Bruynes et al.2 A 50 mL 2-neck rbf equipped with a magnetic stirbar and a rubber septum was charged with 8.8 mg of saccharine (5.4 ml%) and 1.027 g (8.92 mmol) of S1. A condenser was attached to the central neck, the top of the condenser being connected to a vacuum line via a glass adapter. After cooling the flask (- 196 oC) it was evacuated and refilled with nitrogen. To the mixture added 1.45 mL of hexamethyldisilazane (6.95 mmol) freshly distilled from CaH2. After turning on the stirring and cooling the flask was placed into a 60 oC oil bath. Within 50 min the bath temperature was gradually increased to 130 oC. The flask was removed from the bath 3.5 h later and let cool down overnight under nitrogen. The silylated product was collected by pumping on the mixture through a trap kept at – 80 oC. Using liquid nitrogen bath condensed the product into a new apparatus comprised of a 50 mL 2-neck rbf equipped with a magnetic stirbar and a condenser. Upon completion of the transfer the side-neck was plugged with a rubber septum, the flask was cooled down (- 196 oC), evacuated and refilled with nitrogen. Dry toluene (10 mL) was added followed by 10 drops of a solution of Karstedt’s catalyst in xylene (2.1-2.4% wt. Pt, Gelest) and 1.30 mL of triethoxysilane. The flask was immersed into a 36 oC oil bath and kept at this temperature for 46 h. The mixture was pumped on through a - 196 oC trap for 2 h leaving behind colorless oil, which was kept under nitrogen overnight and weighed in air next morning (1.208 g). 1H NMR of the oil indicated complete hydrosilylation of the double bond and N-desilylation (61% yield). 1H NMR (CDCl3): 3.72 (q, J = 7.0, 6H, SiOCH2), 3.45-3.41 (m, 2H, CH2O), 3.31 (t, J = 6.9, 2H, CH2O), 2.65-2.62 (m, 2H, NCH2), 2.35 (s, 3H, NCH3), 1.72 (br s, 1H, NH), 1.63-1.55 (m, 2H, CH2CH2CH2), 1.13 (t, J = 7.0, 9H, OCH2CH3), 0.57-0.51 (m, 2H, CH2Si).

Crude amine S11 was purified by column chromatography (normal phase) using Et3N-EtOAc-hexane (1:10:10) as an eluent, co-evaporated with hexane and pumped on overnight to remove most of residual hexane (0.9379 g, 97% yield). 1H NMR (CDCl3): 7.61-7.54 (m, 2H, C6H5), 7.38-7.33 (m, 3H, C6H5), 7.19-7.09 (m, 5H, C6H5), 5.67 (ddt, J = 17.1; 10.2; 6.7, 1H, CH=CH2), 4.94-4.84 (m, 2H, CH=CH2), 4.39 (s, 1H, C5H3), 4.28-4.20 (m, 2H, CHCH3 + C5H3), 3.92 (s, 5H, C5H5), 3.85 (s, 1H, C5H3), 2.33-2.23 (m, 1H, NCHa), 2.18-2.09 (m, 1H, NCHb), 1.83 (q, J = 7.2, 2H, CH2CH=CH2), 1.69 (s, 3H, NCH3), 1.26 (d, 3H, CHCH3), 1.03 (quintet, J = 7.6, 2H, CH2CH2), 0.91-0.79 (m, 2H, CH2CH2). N-Methyl-N-(n-hexanoyl)-1-[2-(diphenylphosphino)ferrocenyl]ethylamine (S9). Prepared in 92% yield an orange hygroscopic solid according to the general procedure from 0.9157 g of 2b (2.1429 mmol). 1H NMR (CDCl3): 7.56-7.46 (m, 2H (major) + 2H’ (minor), C6H5), 7.40-7.30 (m, 3H + 3H’, C6H5), 7.25-7.15 (m, 5H + 3H’, C6H5), 7.08-7.02 (m, 2H’, C6H5), 6.11 (br quartet, 1H, CHCH3), 5.32 (qd, 1H’, CHCH3), 4.50-4.46 (m, 1H + 1H’, C5H3), 4.35 (t, J = 2.4, 1H’, C5H3), 4.31 (t, J = 2.4, 1H, C5H3), 4.07 (s, 5H’, C5H5), 4.05 (s, 5H, C5H5), 3.82 (m, 1H’, C5H3), 3.79 (m, 1H, C5H3), 2.76-2.66 (m, 1H’, CHaCO), 2.42-2.30 (m, 1H’, CHbCO), 2.20 (s, 3H’, NCH3), 2.14 (s, 3H, NCH3), 1.57-0.82 (m; 11H, CH3(CH2)4 + 9H’, CH3(CH2)3CH2). N-Methyl-N-(n-hexyl)-1-[2-(diphenylphosphino)ferrocenyl]ethylamine (2g). Prepared in 97% (crude yield) from S9 as dark-orange oil. In order to remove all hexane from 2g obtained after chromatography it was dissolved in 2 mL of CH2Cl2, passed through a short RF silica gel column (5.0 g) using acetonitrile as an eluent and stripped of volatiles by pumping on it through a –196 oC trap overnight. The 1H NMR of this product was identical to that of 2g prepared by the N-alkylation method (see main text). N-Methyl-N-(1’-(5’-Hexynoyl))-1-[2-(diphenylphosphino)ferrocenyl]ethylamine (S12). Hygroscopic orange solid, 86% yield. 1H NMR (CDCl3) : 7.56-7.46 (m, 2H (major) + 2H’ (minor), C6H5), 7.39-7.30 (m, 3H + 3H’, C6H5), 7.25-7.15 (m, 5H + 3H’, C6H5), 7.11-7.05 (m, 2H’, C6H5), 6.11 (br quartet, J = 5.6, 1H, CHCH3), 5.34 (quartet of d, J = 6.8; 2.4, 1H’, CHCH3), 4.51-4.46 (m, 1H + 1H’, C5H3), 4.35 (t, J = 2.4, 1H’, C5H3), 4.31 (t, J = 2.4, 1H, C5H3), 4.07 (s, 5H’, C5H5), 4.05 (s, 5H, C5H5), 3.83 (m, 1H’, C5H3), 3.78 (m, 1H, C5H3), 2.97-2.87 (m, 1H’, CHaCO), 2.55-2.46 (m, 1H’, CHbCO), 2.33-0.86 (m; 8H, (CH2)4 + 7H’, CH2(CH2)3CCH), 2.18 (s, 3H’, NCH3), 2.16 (s, 3H, NCH3), 1.88 (t, J = 2.6, 1H, CCH), 1.53 (d, J = 6.8, 3H’, CHCH3), 1.42 (d, J = 7.0, 3H, CHCH3).
