Abstract:
The ozonolysis of substituted-allyl silyl ethers or -allyl esters followed by treatment with bases gave the corresponding α-silyloxy ketones or α-acyloxy ketones in good yields. The reaction is proposed to proceed via a novel ene-diol rearrangement of the corresponding α-silyloxy aldehydes or α-acyloxy aldehydes intermediates.
