According to the Felkin-Anh and Cram-chelation models, nucleophilic additions to α-silyloxy aldehydes proceed through a nonchelation pathway due to the steric and electronic properties of the silyl group, giving rise to Felkin addition products. Herein we describe a general method to promote chelationcontrol in additions to α-silyloxy aldehydes. Dialkylzincs, functionalized dialkylzincs, and (E)-disubstituted, (E)-trisubstituted, and (Z)-disubstituted vinylzinc reagents add to silyl-protected α-hydroxy aldehydes with high selectivity for chelation-controlled products (dr of 10:1 to 20:1) in the presence of alkylzinc halides or triflates, RZnX. With the high functional group tolerance of organozinc reagents, the mild Lewis acidity of RZnX, and the excellent diastereoselectivities favoring the chelation-controlled products, this method will be useful in the synthesis of natural products. A mechanism involving chelation is supported by (1) NMR studies of a model substrate, (2) a dramatic increase in reaction rate in the presence of an alkylzinc halide, and (3) higher diastereoselectivity with larger alkyl substituents on the α-carbon of the aldehyde. This method provides access to chelation-controlled addition products with high diastereoselectivity previously unavailable using achiral organometallic reagents.

Ylide reaction of (S)-3-acetoxy-1-triphenylphosphoranylidene-2-butanone, derived from (S)-lactic acid, with aldehydes gives 1-substituted (S)-4-acetoxy-1-penten-3-one derivatives, which are shown to be transformed into useful chiral compouds by stereosele
