The iridium-catalyzed ring-opening reaction of unsymmetrical oxabenzonorbornadienes (OBD) with water and alcohol nucleophiles is reported, with the effects of various C1-substituents explored. Electron-donating alkyl groups lead entirely to the substituted naphthol derivatives in excellent yields while substitution of the C1 position for electron-withdrawing groups afforded ring-opened products in
