The Paterno-Buchi reaction between benzaldehyde and trimethylsilyloxycyclopentene gave access to unprecedented silyl ether derivatives of 6-oxabicyclo[3.2.0]heptan-1-ol. These bicyclic structures underwent selective reductive ring opening as well as acid-catalysed pinacol-type rearrangement with complete regioselectivity, accompanied by moderate or excellent mechanism-dependent diastereoselectivity.

Keywords: pinacol type; stereoselective regioselective; type rearrangement
