Abstract
Copper catalysed conjugate addition of Grignard reagents to 2-silyloxycyclohexene carboxylates in the presence of an excess chlorotrimethylsilane, leads diastereoselectively to related (anti) (Z) silylketene acetals. Subsequent hydrolysis and desilylation afford 2-hydroxycyclohexane carboxylates in high yields and diastereoselectivities.
