A hydroxy‐directed alkylation of an N , N ‐diethylarylamide using CIPE‐assisted α‐silyl carbanions (CIPE=complex‐induced proximity effect) has been developed using a simple reagent combination of LDA (lithium diisopropylamide) and chlorosilane. A study of the mechanism, and the application of the procedure to an anionic Snieckus–Fries rearrangement for a highly efficient synthesis of the potent phosphatidylinositol 3‐kinase (PI3K) inhibitor LY294002, are reported.
