Abstract
Visible-light-induced organophotocatalyzed ring-opening followed by remote Giese addition of tertiary cycloalkanols with β-silylmethylene malonates has been developed under mild reaction conditions for the synthesis of organosilicon compounds, bearing a ketone group distally substituted with a silyl group with an additional dialkyl malonate functional handle in moderate to good yields (34-72%). The protocol also worked well with diverse Michael acceptors, such as alkylidene/benzylidene malonates, trifluoro methylidene malonate, benzylidene malononitrile, α-cyano-enone, and α-cyano vinyl sulfone, and delivered desired valuable distally functionalized ketones. To showcase the potential of the method, various synthetic transformations of the obtained product were also demonstrated.
