The polar Felkin-Anh, Cornforth-Evans, and Cram-chelation models predict that the addition of organometallic reagents to silyl-protected α-hydroxy ketones proceeds via a nonchelation pathway to give anti-diol addition products. This prediction has held true for the vast majority of additions reported in the literature, and few methods for chelation-controlled additions of organometallic reagents to silyl-protected α-hydroxy ketones have been introduced. Herein, we present a general and highly di ...[more]
