Abstract
Summary: Lithium enolates of carboxylic and thiocarboxylic esters react with nucleophiles [RLi, RMgX, NaA1 (OC2H4OCH3), H2] to afford ketone and aldehyde enolates and subsequently their enol silyl ethers diastereoselectively. This reaction is applied to the synthesis of y-damascone, a-damascone, p-safranal, and artemisia ketone.
