Silyl Phosphites. XVIII. Versatile Utility of α-(Trimethylsilyloxy)alkylphosphonates as Key Intermediates for Transformation of Aldehydes into Several Carbonyl Derivatives

Abstract
Carbonyl addition compounds of diethyl trimethylsilyl phosphite (DTMSP) with aldehydes were converted, by treatment with lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) followed by the successive alkylation and alkaline hydrolysis, to carbonyl derivatives involving aldehydes, unsymmetrical ketones, β,γ-unsaturated ketones, and carboxylic acids. β-Substituted carboxylic esters and γ-substituted lactones were prepared by use of the carbonyl addition compounds of DTMSP with α,β-unsaturated aldehydes.
