Under mild and neutral free radical conditions, an α,β-unsaturated ketone reacted with tributyltin hydride to produce an intermediate resonance-stabilized allylic O-stannyl ketyl. Upon subsequent hydrogen atom abstraction, a tin(IV) enolate was afforded which could be quenched with a variety of electrophiles and form new carbon-carbon bonds. Aldehydes react to produce aldol-type products and both intramolecular and intermolecular carbonyl addition reactions were investigated using this strategy. Using similar methodology, the tin(IV) enolate could be quenched in the presence of HMPA with various alkyl halides and α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds (Michael acceptors) to yield alkylated products in good yields. These reactions represent a very mild regioselective alternative to metal enolate formation which usually requires strong bases such as LDA or strongly reductive dissolving metal conditions to achieve success. New carbon skeletons for natural product synthesis can be readily constructed using this chemically neutral approach.
