REACTION OF FURYLLITHIUM WITH ACYLTRIMETHYLSILANES. SPECIFIC GENERATION OF 5-TRIMETHYLSILOXY-3,4-PENTADIENONE ENOLATES

Abstract
5-Trimethylsiloxy-3,4-pentadienone enolates can be generated efficiently by treating furyllithium with acyltrimethylsilanes and can be isolated in good yield as their silyl enol ethers.
