Copper-mediated lithium aluminum hydride reduction of 1-oxaspiro[2.5]oct-4-enes has been observed to primarily yield 1,4-products, although 1,2-products and general decomposition are encountered. Olefin substitution (α and β) affects the yield and selectivity. Alternate hydride coordination sites redirect reductive opening of these allylic epoxides.
