Abstract
Alpha-keto esters can be converted into alpha-hydroxy acids in a single flask involving metal-catalyzed silylene transfer, 6pi-electrocyclization, Ireland-Claisen rearrangement, and hydrolysis. This reaction sequence is stereoselective and tolerates alkyl- and aryl-substituted alpha-keto ester substrates as well as an alpha-imino ester.Entities:
