A convenient route to (E)-α,β-unsaturated methyl ketones
Aldehydes are converted into (E)-α,β-unsaturated methyl ketones in good yield and with a high E stereoselectivity using α,α- bis(trimethylsilyl) N-tert-butyl acetimine 3. The reaction was mediated by a catalytic amount of tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF) under mild conditions. The disilylated reagent 3 is easily generated from N-tert-butylacetimine, lithium diisopropylamide (LDA), and chlorotrimethylsilane. The mechanism of the reaction is discussed. Copyright

A Simple and Highly Stereoselective Route to E-α,β-Unsaturated Aldehydes
Zinc bromide mediated reaction of α,α-bis(trimethylsilyl)-tert-butylacetaldimine (3) with a wide range of aldehydes takes place under mild conditions and affords the corresponding α,β-unsaturated aldehydes in good yields and with high E stereoselectivity (>98percent).This procedure is successfully applied to the preparation of intermediates for retinoid and natural product synthesis.
