α-Acetoxy aldehydes or α-acetoxy ketones can be efficiently synthesized by treating 2,3-epoxy primary alcohols with lead tetraacetate. The reaction, which proceeds with complete regio- and stereoselectivity facilitates the enantioselective synthesis of α-acetoxy carbonyl compoundsfrom allyl alcohols, via Sharpless epoxidation. Cyclic β-hydroxy ethers, with an oxygenated five-, six- or seven-membered
