Bistrifluoromethanesulfonimide in the catalytic conjugate allylation of alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl compounds

Bistrifluoromethanesulfonimide may be used directly to initiate the catalytic conjugate allylation of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds with allyltrimethylsilane; high yields of either silyl enol ethers or δ,ε- unsaturated ketones and esters may be obtained under mild conditions.
