Abstract
A slight excess of silyl trifluoromethanesulfonate mediates a tandem enol silane formation- Mukaiyama aldol reaction in the presence of Hunig's base. Preformation of the enol silane is unnecessary for efficient reactions, which proceed in 75–97% yield for the addition of aryl methyl ketones and acetate esters to non-enolizable aldehydes. Mechanistic data suggests that free amine is crucial for full conversion.
