Abstract

Since the syn elimination of the fl-oxido trialkylsilyl derivative is well established,'an explanation for the observed stereoselectivity must be attributed to the diastereoselective addition of the a-silyl carbanion to the carbonyl compound (Scheme I). Given the reasonable postulate that the reaction proceeds via a pericyclic the influence of variable steric parameters may be analyzed to determine their effects upon the relative heats of formation ...
