The catalytic activation of C-Si and O-Si bond by t-Bu-P4 base has been investigated and the present study focused on the activation of C-Si bond of ethyl trimethylsilylacetate. The reaction with benzophenone in the presence of catalytic amount of t-Bu-P4 base proceeded at -78°Cto give the unsaturated carboxylate in excellent yield. This Peterson type olefination was applied for the synthesis of enaminoesters using N-alkylformanilide as substrates. The scope and limitation of these transformations were investigated.
