With the purpose of developing a method of preparing Z-α,β-unsaturated amides, the Peterson reaction of the (triphenylsilyl)acetamide Ph3SiCH2COX (1, X = NBn2; 3, X = NMe2) with various aldehydes was examined. The reaction of aromatic aldehydes gave selectivities up to >97:3. It was found that the selectivity was a function of the electronic nature of the aromatic ring and higher Z selectivity was attained with electron-rich aldehydes. With aliphatic aldehydes selectivities up to 92:8 were achieved, and unlike with analogous phosphorus reagents, less sterically hindered aldehydes gave higher Z selectivity. Also, 3, which has a smaller amide group than 1, tended to give rise to higher selectivity. A comparison with the reaction of trimethylsilyl analogues revealed the significance of the phenyl substituents on the silyl group.

The Peterson reaction of triphenylsilylacetamide Ph3SiCH2CONBn2 with aromatic aldehydes and certain aliphatic aldehydes proceeded to give the corresponding α,β-unsaturated amide with high Z selectivity (up to Z:E = >97:3).
