A B(C6F5)(3)-catalyzed method for the selective conversion of unsaturated carbohydrates to cyclopentanes and cyclopropanes is disclosed. Catalyst activation of tertiary silanes generates the ion pair [(C6F5)(3)B-H][ROSi2] whose components synergistically activate C-O bonds for diastereoselective C-C bond formation. Sila-THF cations ate invoked as key intermediates facilitating carbocydizations. Complex chiral synthons are thereby obtained in a single pot.
