Abstract

tert-Butoxydimethylsilyl enol ethers derived from aldehydes and ketones were synthesized in good yields with high regioand stereoselectivities, under thermodynamically and kinetically controlled conditions. The hydrolytic stability of tert-butoxydimethylsilyl enol ether of cyclohexanone was studied under acidic and basic conditions and compared to that of trimethylsilyl, tert-butyldimethylsilyl and (2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenoxy) dimethylsilyl enol ethers.
