Also, the cleavage of cyclooctene oxide with silicon tetrachloride catalyzed by PINDOX was reported to provide the corresponding chlorohydrin in 85 % ee, but its chemical yield was not reported: see reference [25] in A. V. Malkov, M. Orsini, D. Pernazza, K. W. Muir, V. Langer, P. Meghani, Kočovský, Org. Lett. 2002, 4, 1047-1049.
