Abstract
Electrophilic 5-endo-trig cyclisations of allylsilanes have been carri ed out leading to tri- and tetrasubstituted tetrahydrofurans with reas onable fields and excellent diastereoselectivities. A rationalization of both the regio- and the stereoselectivity has been proposed. A sili con group having a thienyl fragment attached to the silicon has also b een devised was shown to be oxidized under both electrophilic and nucl eophilic conditions. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
