Abstract
We have developed highly stereospecific rearrangements of silanol epoxides into 1'-silanoxy-tetrahydrofurans and 1'-silanoxy-tetrahydropyrans. Upon treatment with Ph3CBF4 and NaHCO3 in CH2Cl2, di-substituted trans-epoxide silanols rearrange into products with an erythro configuration; di-substituted cis-epoxide silanols give products with a threo configuration. We have used these reactions as key steps in the syntheses of (±)-solerone and (±)-muricatacin.

Abstract
We describe the development of the first ring opening of epoxides using pendant sulfamates and sulfamides. These reactions are promoted by a base and proceed under mild conditions to afford oxathiazinanes and cyclic sulfamides with excellent diastereoselectivity and regiocontrol. The reactions scale well, and the products serve as synthons for ring-opening reactions.

Abstract
We present a unique strategy for the synthesis of vicinal amino alcohols. Ring opening of aziridines with pendant silanols is compatible with a range of substrates. To engage productively in ring opening, the aziridine must be at least mildly activated, and a variety of such N-substituents are tolerated. The utility of this methodology is highlighted in facile preparations of the natural products (±)-Clavaminol H, (±)-dihydrosphingosine, and (±)-N-hexanoyldihydrosphingosine as well as a natural product analogue (±)-des-acetyl-Clavaminol H.

Abstract
We demonstrate that di-tert-butylsilanols are competent nucleophiles for the intramolecular interception of palladium π-allyl species. In these reactions, allyl ethyl carbonates are the best precursors for the formation of palladium π-allyl intermediates, and [(Cinnamyl)PdCl]2/BINAP is superior to other Pd salt/ligand framework combinations. Our optimized protocol is compatible with a variety of silanol substrates. Importantly, the cyclization is perfectly stereospecific, proceeding via an anti-syn mechanism, which stands in contrast to reported analogous reactions of alcohols and phenols, known to proceed via an anti-anti mechanism. The alkenes in the product dioxasilinanes serve as blank slates for further functionalization.

Abstract
We present protocols for the highly regioselective hydroxyselenylation and silanoxyselenylation of allylic silanols. N-(Phenylseleno)phthalimide acts as the selenylating agent for both transformations. Under basic conditions, hydroxyselenylation proceeds with >20:1 regioselectivity, and the products are valuable synthons for further transformations. We show that the silanol plays a critical role in maintaining the yield and regioselectivity of this reaction. Surprisingly, under acidic conditions, the hydroxyselenylation pathway is blocked, and products of a tethered silanoxyselenylation are exclusive.

Abstract
We present a new ring-opening reaction of epoxides by pendant silanols, catalyzed by either Ph3C+BF4- or BINOL-phosphoric acid. Silanol epoxides derived from trans-allylic alcohols, cis-allylic alcohols, trans-homoallylic alcohols, and cis-homoallylic alcohols were all compatible and gave products from either endo- or exo-ring opening. With silanol epoxides derived from 4-alkenyl silanols, an unusual rearrangement to tetrahydrofuran products was observed. The utility of this methodology was demonstrated in a short preparation of protected d-arabitol.
