A method for the catalytic enantioselective synthesis of 6-silylated 2-cyclohexenones

6-Silylated-2-cyclohexetioiies can be synthesized enantioselectively by hydrosilylation of the corresponding diazo-2-cyclolicxenone in the presence of a chiral Rh(II) catalyst. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
