[formula: see text] The generation of (2-PyMe2Si)2CHLi was easily accomplished by the deprotonation of (2-PyMe2Si)2CH2 using n-BuLi in Et2O. Thus generated (2-PyMe2Si)2CHLi was found to react with a variety of aldehydes and ketones to give the corresponding vinylsilanes in extremely high yields with complete stereoselectivities.
