β¦ Synopsis
The synthesis and preliminary evaluation of two new chiral 1,7-dioxaspiro[5.5]undecane ligands is described. The compounds of interest are readily available in enantiomerically pure form. Chiral organotitanium complexes prepared from these ligands catalyze the ring opening reaction of meso epoxides by TMSN 3 . A key observation suggests that silylation of the ligand competes with catalyst turnover in this application. Implications for the use of diol ligands are discussed.

Acid-catalyzed equilibration of spiroketals 5SHp6 and 55Haj3 involves a two stage process whereby the 1,6-dioxaspiro]4.4]nonanes can be equilibrated under mild conditions to a pair of 1,6\_dioxaspiro[45]decanes with preservation of the adjacent C-20 methyl stereocenter. Under more forcing conditions
