The Use of Bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide and Bis (trimethylsilyl)urea for Protection and as Control Reagents in Synthesis

Abstract: The oxophilicity of silicon allows the efficient protection of a range of hydroxyfunctionalities using either N,Obis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide (BSA) or N,N-bis(trimethylsilyl)urea (BSU). Three distinct mechanistic pathways are proposed for the reactions of the reagents which explain the mild reaction conditions that can be used to achieve a number of important synthetic transformations. The reactions include examples where improved stereochemical control results from the use of BSA.

“…The preligand 15 was tested in the Pd‐catalyzed enantioselective alkylation of unsymmetrical diketones in the presence of bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide (BSA) 29. 30 Surprisingly, the best results were obtained with an excess of four equivalents of BSA.…”

“…No reaction occurred when a variety of bases, such as NaH, lithium diisopropylamide, 1,1,3,3-tetramethyguanidine, or diisopropylethylamine, were used. In contrast to other bases, N,O-bis(trimethysilyl)-acetamide (BSA) 29) promoted the reaction very efficiently to afford the corresponding product (S)-8 in 94% yield and in 99% ee (Chart 9).…”

“…In the case of reaction type B, kinetic experiments also indicate that the rate‐determining nucleophilic attack of the enol silyl ether, derived from 14a and BSA,16 to a cationic π‐allylpalladium complex is achieved in cooperation with a single molecule of Zn(OAc) 2 . This fact led us to hypothesize that a nitrogen atom on the sidearm in 12 could fix the prochiral nucleophile in the appropriate position through a secondary ligand substrate interaction22 mediated by Zn metal.…”
