Abstract
A facile and highly stereoselective retro-[1,4] Brook rearrangement of 3-silyl allyloxysilanes has been discovered. While basic hydrolysis of the formed (Z)-3,3-bissilyl lithium enolates provides 3,3-bissilyl carbonyl compounds efficiently, trapping the species with various electrophiles including alkyl halides leads to the exclusive O-substituted (Z)-3,3-bissilyl enol derivatives that can undergo a Sakurai reaction with aldehyde to produce the synthetically useful 1,2-diol diastereoselectively.
