Crucial role of the ligand of silyl Lewis acid in the Mukaiyama aldol reaction

Abstract

The Me3SiX-induced Mukaiyama aldol reaction proceeds through each catalytic cycle under the influence of X: the silyl group of Me3SiNTf2 does not release from NTf2 and that of silyl enol ether intermolecularly transfers to the product, while the silyl group of Me3SiOTf remains in the product and that of the silyl enol ether becomes the catalyst for the next catalytic cycle.
