Abstract EtAlCl 2-promoted additions of organocopper reagents to camphor-derived, conjugated N-enoyl-sultams gave saturated and olefinic β-silylcarboxyl derivatives with high diastereodifferentiation. Nondestructive removal of the chiral auxiliary followed by oxidative Si-C bond cleavage furnished enantiomerically pure acetate-derived aldols and propionate- derived 'anti'-aldols (via silyl-directed α-methylation).
