Abstract

Abstract:@-Hydroxy ketones can be doubly deprotonated with> 2 equiv of an amide base at low temperature providing both proximal or distal aldolate dianions in good to excellent yield. A variety of substitutionally biased@-hydroxy ketones give exclusively distal dianions. If the distal site is blocked, proximal dianions are formed in good yield; however, chromatographic separation of the silylated products leads to decreased yields. ...
