Abstract
The aldol addition of methyl ketones to β-siloxy and α-methyl β-siloxy aldehydes is described. Careful control of mechanistically distinct aldol reactions leverages 1,2- and 1,3-asymmetric induction, selectively forming syn and anti aldol adducts with excellent diastereocontrol. Experimental and theoretical investigations have provided insight to the factors governing diastereoselectivity.
