Tri- and tetrasubstituted 1,4-dien-3-ones 1 were treated with Lewis acid in the presence of triethylsilane, furnishing either silyl enol ethers 4 or cyclopentanones 5 in good yields, depending upon work-up conditions. This reaction is presumed to occur through oxyallyl intermediate 3, which undergoes intermolecular hydride transfer and O-silylation to give 4. In most cases, only 2 equiv. of silane was required, and catalytic amounts of Lewis acid could be used. Trienone substrate 7 was found to undergo clean conversion to tricyclic ether 8, indicating fast capture of the oxyallyl intermediate by the pendant olefin. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Cyclization of tri- and tetrasubstituted dienones 1 under Lewis acidic conditions in the presence of triethylsilane led to formation of either silyl enol ethers 6 or cyclopentanones 7 in good to excellent yields, depending on work-up conditions. The proposed mechanism involves initial Nazarov cyclization to give oxyallyl intermediates 5, which are intercepted via intermolecular transfer of hydride. The reactions proceeded cleanly with as little as 2 equiv. of silane and in most cases catalytic amounts of Lewis acid could be used. Trapping with Et3SiD occurs at the less substituted terminus in unsymmetrical cases. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
