Abstract

Summary: The chemoselective reaction of Sn [N (TMS),], with primary aldehydes leads to the stereoselective syn-thesis of trans-NJV-bis (trimethylsily1) enamines. More reactive Sn (NR. &,(R= Et, iPr, or piperidine) can be generated in situ and then treated with aldehydes or ketones to give trans enamines.
