A versatile precursor for the assembly of a range of polyol-containing fragment is the silacyclic alcohol 2 that results from the highly enantioselective, calalytic isomerization of diphenylsilacyclopentene oxide (1). The use of this precursor is illustrated with the efficient and highly diastereoselective assembly of acyclic tetraol motifs.
