Abstract Electrochemical reduction of the trimethylsilyl enolates alkyl aryl ketones induces retro-Brook rearrangement to provide 1-aryl-1-trimethylsilylalkan-1-ols. The transformation proceeds through a sequence 1) single-electron silyl enolate, 2) protonation with phenol, 3) another form siloxy-substituted benzylic anion, and 4) pivotal rearrangement.
