The reaction of 3,4‐bis( O ‐ tert ‐butyldimethylsilyl)‐6‐ O ‐tosyl‐ D ‐glucal 4 with the Koser reagent [PhI(OH)OTs] unexpectedly afforded tetrahydrofurfural 6 as well as 2,3‐anhydropyranose 7 as major products. This unprecedented, stereoselective transformation helps to gain further insight into the mechanism of the well‐documented hypervalent iodine‐promoted allylic oxidation of cyclic enol ethers. A novel chemoenzymatic method for the preparation of glucal 4 in high yield is presented.
