Abstract

In the presence of a catalytic amount of TsOH or TiCl4,(Z)-5-silyl-4-penten-1-ols ((Z)-1) are smoothly cyclized to 2-silylmethyl-substituted tetrahydrofurans. This cyclization is applicable to the construction of a tetrahydropyran ring. The silyl group and the geometry of the CC double bond strongly influence the cyclization rate. TBDMS and benzyldimethylsilyl groups considerably accelerate the cyclization in comparison with a dimethylphenylsilyl group, ...
