Treatment of the epoxide 3 which is derived from a sesquiterpene antitumor antibiotic, terrecyclic acid A 1, with BF3*OEt2 in benzene, affords a skeletally rearranged ether 6 as the sole product; its structure was deduced from spectroscopic data including, 2D NMR data, to be -2-hydroxy-11,11-dimethyl-5-oxatetracyclo4,13.010,13>tridecan-1-ylmethanol.
