Graphical Abstract
It's super-silyl-fragilithyl-ester-aryl-docious: The super silyl group is a strong protecting group for carboxylic acids and provides a method for direct lithiation that is compatible with the ester moiety. Organolithium compounds bearing a super silyl ester react with a variety of electrophiles in high yields (see scheme). The reaction of lithiated super silyl chloroacetate with a boron compound gives α-functionalization of the ester moiety by Matteson rearrangement.

- 15The use of more stable boronic esters, such as neopentyl glycol and pinacol gave the product in low yields, presumably due to their steric hindrance.
- 16The use of KHMDS for α-alkylation gave comparable results with LiHMDS.
