Abstract
With the aid of a catalytic amount of palladium chloride, triethylsilane reacted with ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone and cyclohexanone at room temperature to afford a mixture of triethylsilyl enol ether and triethylsilyl ether. When a small amount of thiophenol was added to the system, the reaction was completed within much shorter time and the formation of the enol ether became the predominant reaction path. These results showed that the method is a convenient method for synthesizing silyl enol ethers from a variety of aliphatic ketones.
