The treatment of 2,3-epoxy primary alcohols with lead(IV) acetate (LTA) leads to α-acetoxy aldehydes or α-acetoxy ketones, through the nucleophilic ring-opening of an intermediate oxonium and the subsequent carbon–carbon bond cleavage. This reaction represents a new route to optically active α-hydroxy carbonyl compounds.
