We synthesized C9-O-silyl ethers of cinchonidine and dihydrocinchonidine (1-8), seven of which have not been known before. The structures of the compounds were verified by ESI-ion-trap MS and 1H-NMR. Fragmentation of silyl ethers containing Si-phenyl bonds was studied for the first time. The compounds obtained will be utilized as chiral catalysts of certain asymmetric syntheses.</o:p>
