A Catalytic Intermolecular Formal Ene Reaction between Ketone-Derived Silyl Enol Ethers and Alkynes

Abstract

A catalytic formal ene reaction between ketone-derived silyl enol ethers and terminal alkynes is described. This transformation is uniquely capable of bimolecular assembly of 2-siloxy-1,4-dienes and can be used to access β,γ-unsaturated ketones containing quaternary carbons in the α-position.
