The influence of different protecting groups in the opening of highly substituted α,δ-dihydroxyepoxides has been studied. It is possible to control the opening or the cyclization of the epoxide depending on the protecting group used.

tetrahydropyrans - asymmetry - epoxides - cyclization - synthesis
