Highly substituted alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones are prepared by the N-heterocyclic carbene-initiated addition of alpha-hydroxypropargylsilanes to aldehydes. This strategy serves as a highly efficient alternative to the standard Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) approaches for these types of compounds. In contrast to the MBH reaction, different substitution in the beta-position of the product (R1) can be accommodated in moderate to excellent yields with a high degree of control over the resulting alkene.
通过N-杂环卡宾引发的α-羟基炔丙基硅烷与醛的加成反应制备高度取代的α,β-不饱和酮。对于这类化合物，该策略是标准的森田-贝利斯-希尔曼（MBH）方法的一种高效替代方法。与MBH反应不同，产物β位（R1）的不同取代基可以以中等至优异的产率得到，并且对所得烯烃具有高度的可控性。
