15. In similar reactions involving 2-(trimethylsilyloxy)furans and 3-alkenoyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-ones, good to excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivity were obtained, by exploiting pyridine bis(oxazoline) (pybox)-lanthanide complexes or binaphthyldiimine-Ni(II) complexes:

19. This reaction was also exploited during the enantioselective synthesis of (+)-compactin; here, a crucial role played by the unsaturated aldehyde acceptor was highlighted in guiding the overall stereoselection of the organocatalyzed process:.

56. During the reaction course, clear evidence of formation of the N-trimethylsilyl adduct from the starting pyrrolinone was observed (TLC, NMR), which returned N-deprotected pyrrolinone under the slightly acidic quenching conditions.
57. For a comprehensive survey on these topics, see: Noteworthily, the presence of an alkoxy substituent at the C4 position of the ring influences the chemical behavior of the pyrrolinone nucleus, deeply affecting the acidity of the H5-protons, as well as the diverse nucleophilic character at the C3 and C5 carbon atoms.

58. Compounds 1c-1e are known substances, which have been nicely exploited in both alkylation and aldol additions/condensations: Li or Na-dienolates:

68. Addition of 1c to cinnamaldehyde was also tested, with exclusive, low-yielding production of the trimethylsilyl-protected carbinol from 1,2-carbonyl addition attack.
69. According to this line of reasoning, complete lack of reactivity between 1c and Z-configured cyclic acceptor 11 could be attributed to the fact that both possible tight transition state models VII and VIII are sterically encumbered and inherently unfavoured.{A figure is presented}
