The phenyldimethylsilyl group as a masked form of the hydroxy group

Abstract
The phenyldimethylsilyl group can be converted in two steps, protodesilylation and peracid-mediated rearrangement, into a hydroxy group with retention of configuration: β-phenyldimethylsilyl carbonyl compounds are thus revealed to be masked aldol products.
