The alkylation of dienolates generated from 3-methoxycycloalk-2-enones having a 3'-hydroxyl alkenyl chain provides the corresponding quaternized cycloalkenones in a highly diastereoselective manner. The high degree of stereocontrol in the α-quaternization possibly implies intervention of a rigid chelating transition state that
