Generation of silyl group stabilized amide homoenolates by utilizing the complex-induced proximity effect (CIPE)

Abstract

Generation of silyl group stabilized amide homoenolates from 3-trimethylsilyl- and 3-dimethylphenyl-propanamide with Bu^sLi–TMEDA at –78 °C and their reactions with chlorosilanes, diphenyldisulfide and alkyl halides were carried out.
