The regioselective 1,2-addition of silylenol ethers to the C=S+-bond of 4-silyloxy-1-benzothiopyrylium triflates yields the corresponding bis-silylenol ethers which can be hydrolyzed selectively to give the respective ketosilylenol ether or 1,5-diketones. The new method is an equivalent to the 1,4-addition of nucleophiles to β-thio-α,β-unsaturated cyclic ketones.
