The catalytic enantioselective protonation of silyl enol ethers was realized via a cationic gold-activated Brønsted acid. While enantio­selective protonations of cyclic silyl enol ethers of ketones are known (see Review below), no prior precedents on Brønsted acid catalyzed protonation existed for the acyclic variants.
