(Matrix presented) We report the diastereoselective addition of a variety of nucleophiles to α-(trimethylsilyl)benzyl-substituted oxocarbenium ions. The oxocarbenium ions are generated from α-acetoxy ethers, which are easily prepared via reductive acetyla

(matrix presented) Enantiopure (S)-α-(trimethylsilyl)benzyl alcohol (98% ee) was prepared by Noyori's transfer hydrogenation of benzoyltrimethylsilane. The corresponding trimethylsilyl ether was subjected to Marko's silyl modified Sakurai conditions with
