The stepwise synthesis of α-trimethylsiloxy aldehydes and α-hydroxy aldehydes could be achieved via the reduction of α-trimethylsiloxy nitriles with diisobutylaluminium hydride (DIBAH) starting from a variety of ketones.The facile synthesis of optically active α-tert-butyldimethylsiloxy aldehydes was attained by combination of asymmetric silylcyanation of aldehydes and DIBAH reduction of optically active α-siloxy nitriles.Furthermore, in the reduction of some α-tert-butyldimethylsiloxy-β,γ-unsaturated nitriles, migration of the double bond took place to form more stable α-siloxy-α,β-unsaturated aldehydes under some reaction conditions.
