title: Hosomi-Sakurai reactions of silacyclohexenes.
abstract: Silacyclic allyl silanes, derived from silene-diene Diels-Alder reactions, combine with acetals in the presence of Lewis acids to afford, following oxidation of the intermediate fluorosilane, either butane-1,4-diols or tetrahydronaphthalenes containing four contiguous chiral centres with moderate to good diastereoselectivity.
