Chromium(III) tetraphenylporphyrin triflate, Cr(TPP)OTf, works as an efficient and characteristic Lewis acid catalyst in the regio- and stereoselective rearrangement of epoxides to aldehydes. This Cr(TPP)OTf-catalyzed reaction is an operationally simple and especially convenient method for synthesizing optically active β-siloxy aldehydes from 2,3-epoxy silyl ethers which are readily available in enantiomerically enriched forms by the Sharpless epoxidation of allylic alcohols followed by silylation.
