What Wikipedia says

In organosilicon chemistry, silyl enol ethers are a class of organic compounds that share the common functional group R3Si−O−CR=CR2, composed of an enolate (R3C−O−R) bonded to a silane (SiR4) through its oxygen end and an ethene group (R2C=CR2) as its carbon end. They are important intermediates in organic synthesis.
