Studies on radical cyclization of 2,3-epoxy alcohols containing a β-(alkoxy)acrylate moiety using Cp2TiCl

Radical-mediated opening of chiral 2,3-epoxy alcohols, containing suitably positioned β-(alkoxy)acrylate moieties, using Cp2TiCl triggered intramolecular cyclization to give tetrahydrofuran and tetrahydropyran moieties.
