A great variety of methyl 2-(trialkylsiloxy)cyclopropanecarboxylates C1 - C31 are cleaved under very mild conditions and with excellent yields providing 4-oxoalkanoic esters D1 - D31 which are important synthetic building blocks.Even sensible esters with formyl, vinyl ketone, or trimethylsiloxy functions can be prepared.Corresponding to the regioselective synthesis of C isomeric pairs of D can deliberately be constructed.In the presence of an electrophile alkylating ring opening delivers 4-oxoalkanoates substituted in position 2, however, the degree of alkylation does not exceed 60percent.Several other cleavage variations allow syntheses of other 4-oxoalkanoic acid derivatives in effective one-pot procedures.
THE METHOXYCARBONYLALKYLATION AND METHOXYCARBONYLALKYLIDENATION OF SILYL ENOL ETHERS

Silyl enol ethers (1) react with the phenylthio(methoxycarbonyl)alkyl chlorides (2) in the presence of Lewis acids to give good yields of the γ-ketoesters (3); oxidative and reductive desulphurisations give the saturated (4) and unsaturated (5 or 6) γ-ket
