Abstract
Dimethylphenylsilyllithium undergoes conjugate addition to a variety of α, β-unsaturated enones in the presence of sub-stoichiometric amounts of dimethylzinc. Down to 10 mol% of Me2Zn facilitates these reactions to afford good to excellent yields of β-silylated products. This catalytic behavior is displayed when the Me2Zn used is generated in situ from the addition of methyllithium to zinc (II) iodide or when used directly from a commercial source ...
