40. A reviewer suggested a crossover experiment utilizing tetrabutylammonium chloride as a competitive nucleophile. We found that generation of a bromoether from acetoxy ether 25 at -60 °C followed by addition of tetrabutylammonium chloride and warming to 0 °C led to axial bromotetrahydropyran 27 in 83% ee. No chlorotetrahydropyrans were observed in the crude reaction mixture. This result is consistent with an ion-pairing argument in which recombination of a bromide anion from inside a solvent cage is faster than incorporation of a chloride anion from outside a solvent cage.
