Abstract
Trimethylsilyl halide activation of Fmoc-protected N,O-acetals yields reactive intermediates capable of efficiently adding to a variety of enamines. NMR studies have provided evidence that a stable halomethyl carbamate intermediate forms in solution. Good yields are obtained over a broad range of enamine nucleophiles encompassing both cyclic and acyclic ketone-derived and aldehyde-derived enamines. Preliminary studies suggest that the enamine additions occur through a concerted, SN2-type mechanism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
