β¦ Synopsis
The regio-and stereochemistry of electrophile-promoted transannular ring expansion of cycle 1,5-and 1,6-epoxyalkenes and cycle trans-1,5bisepoxides were studied. The results are rationalized in terms of tricyclic oxonium intermediates showing the directing ability of oxygen substituents in the regio-and stereocontrol observed.

An understanding of the fundamental factors which dictate the stereochemical course of nuclec philic and electrophilic attack on organic substrates is of paramount importance in organic synthesis. Many workers have stressed the importance of steric factors in this regard. 1 Recently,
