NEW SYNTHESES OF β-ALKOXY KETONES AND β-KETO ACETALS

Abstract
It was found that trimethylsilyl enol ethers derived from aldehydes and ketones react smoothly with acetals or methyl orthoformate at −78°C in the presence of TiCl4, to give β-alkoxy ketones or β-keto acetals, respectively, in good yields.
