[reaction: see text] Oxidative ring opening of 3-oxabicyclo[4.1.0]hept-4-enes, formed by the intramolecular Pt(II)-catalyzed cyclopropanation of enol ethers by alkynes, gives oxepane derivatives. Alternatively, the acid-catalyzed opening of the cyclopropane ring leads to dihydrobenzofurans or 3,4-dihydro-2H-chromenes.
