Lewis acid-promoted triethylsilane reduction of 6,6-spiroketal alcohols produces cis-2,6-disubstituted tetrahydropyrans with excellent regioselectivity and stereocontrol. An appended alcohol allows bidentate coordination of the Lewis acid to selectively activate one C-O bond of the anomeric center toward reductive cleavage.
