ASYMMETRIC INDUCTION BY CHIRAL SILICON GROUPS

The reduction of racemic RPhMeSiCCl2CH3 systems (R=cyclohexyl, isoprpyl, t-butyl and 2-mesityl) to the diastereomeric RPhMeSiCHClCH3 with tributyltin hydride was used as a probe into the potential of the RPhMeSi group to induce asymmetry at an α position.Favorable results were obtained for R=mesityl.
