At sixes and sevens : The synthesis of [4.2.1]‐ and [3.2.1]‐fused bicyclic acetals by an intramolecular double alkoxylation of alkyne diols is reported. The course of the reaction depends on the substitution of the triple bond. Terminal alkynes give the [3.2.1]bicyclic product by a 6‐ exo pathway, whereas aryl alkynes undergo almost exclusively a 7‐ endo cyclization to give the [4.2.1]bicycles (see scheme, Ts=toluene‐4‐sulfonyl).
