Abstract
Lewis acid-promoted triethylsilane reduction of 6,6-spiroketol alcohol s produces cis-2,6-disubstituted tetrahydropyrans with excellent regio selectivity and stereocontrol. An appended alcohol allows bidentate co ordination of the Lewis acid to selectively activate one CO bond of th e anomeric center toward reductive cleavage. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevi er Science Ltd
