Allyloxy radicals formed by epoxide cleavage, have cyclised onto appropriately positioned alkenes to form tetrahydrofurans, and the diastereoselectivity of the cyclisation has been studied.The reaction was used to synthesise lilac alcohols which were then used to confirm the stereochemistry of such cyclisations.
