In the presence of Bu4N(1+))*F(1-), benzyltrimethylsilane behaves as a convenient benzylation reagent.In the reaction with non conjugated aldehydes, pehenethylalcohols are obtained in satisfactory yields upon hydrolysis, while the formation of bibenzyl or ortho products are not observed.When the reaction occurs with α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones, only 1,2-addition is observed even in the case of chalcone.
