Novel Reductive Opening of 5,6-Dihydro-2H-pyran RIng

Abstract
Oxidation of 2-methoxy-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran derivatives (4 and 5), followed by reduction of the resulting peroxides with sodium borohydride afforded enantiomerically pure open-chained compounds 9, 10 11, and 12 which can serve as chiral building blocks.
