Copper catalysed conjugate addition of Grignard reagents to 2-silyloxycyclo
hexene carboxylates in the presence of an excess chlorotrimethylsilane, lea
ds diastereoselectively to related (anti) (Z) silylketene acetals. Subseque
nt hydrolysis and desilylation afford 2-hydroxycyclohexane carboxylates in
high yields and diastereoselectivities. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Scie
