A study of Lewis acid mediated intramolecular ring opening reactions of 2-oxetanones has been undertaken.Using α-substituted 4-(3-benzyloxy)propyl) analogues as substrates, we have found the reaction outcome to be highly Lewis acid dependent.
SYSTHESIS AND INTRAMOLECULAR RING CLEAVAGE OF 2-OXETANONES

Intermolecular 2+2 aldehyde-ketene cycloaddition, followed by Lewis acid induced intramolecular ring opening of the 2-oxetanone product have been used to prepare tetrahydrofuran and tetrahydropyran ring systems.
