12. The addition of water (100 mol %) afforded the cyclic ether 2 in quantitative yield and with excellent selectivity (entry 4). This further supports the notion that triethylsilyl bromide is not the active catalyst.

14. Interestingly, the nature of the triorganosilyloxy protecting group is inconsequential in terms of the overall reaction efficiency and selectivity (TES ∼ TBS ∼ TIPS).
