Allylation of enolizable α-diketones with allyltrifluorosilanes in the presence of triethylamine gave the corresponding tertiary homoallyl alcohols in good yield in a highly regio- and stereospecific manner. The reaction proceeds as diallylation with allyltrifluorosilanes yielding the 1,2-diols with high diastereoselectivity. The more sterically demanding crotyl- and prenyltrifluorosilanes lead exclusively to monoallylated products with the allyl group being added γ-regioselectively. In addition, highly diastereoselective crotylation was observed in the formation of the monoallylated α-hydroxy ketones. Asymmetric α-diketones were generally allylated at the less enolized ketone group except when both diketone and allylsilane were sterically hindered.
