1-Acylamino-1-(trimethylsiloxy)alkanes react with carbon and heteroatom nucleophiles to give the corresponding 1-substituted-1-acylaminoalkanes. The 1-acylamino-1-(trimethylsiloxy)alkanes can also give rise to enamides, and by this route the mild antibiotic tuberin, and the isomeric (Z)-tuberin have been prepared. A further example of their reactions is illustrated with the acid-catalysed intramolecular cyclisation onto a carbon-carbon double bond. These transformations show that 1-acylamino-1-(trimethylsiloxy)alkanes are versatile precursors to synthetically useful acylimines.

(Z)-3-Arylprop-2-enoic acids can be converted by the Curtius procedure, through the acyl azides, into (Z)-2-arylethenyl isocyanates, which with methanol give methyl (Z)-N-(2-arylethenyl)carbamates.Acylation of the (Z)-enecarbamates, through their anions, leads to methyl (Z)-N-acyl-N-(2-arylethenyl)carbamates, which on treatment with lithium iodide in boiling N,N-dimethylformamide or acetonitrile undergo demethoxycarbonylation to give (Z)-enamides.The stereospecific route to enamides can also be used in the E-series.Treatment of (Z)- or (E)-2-arylethenyl isocyanates with trifluoroacetic acid gives (E)-N-(2-arylethenyl)trifluoroacetamides,the anions of which, with acylating agents, give (E)-enamides directly.
