β¦ Synopsis
The aldol-type addition of enol borinates to imines was studied with ab initio MO methods (3-21G basis set). Calculations performed on unsubstituted, mono-and di-substituted structures have shown that only two competing cyclic transition states (chair-like and boat-like) are important. Their relative energy depends on the enolate geometry and on the substitution pattern. This approach allows a qualitative rationalization of the observed stereoselectivity trends in the title reaction.

29Si nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy has shown that when dialkoxysilanes are milled with magnesium chloride, a component of the Ziegler-Natta catalyst, the 295i nucleus becomes more deshielded. Calculations on the change in 29Si NMR shielding when the Si-O bond distances and O-Si-O bond angl
