Abstract
A variety of trans-β-substituted cyclic alcohols were stereoselectively chlorinated to either the corresponding cis-chloride or trans-chloride (inversion or retention of configuration) with good to excellent yields; the stereochemical outcome is determined by the size of the ring and the nature of the β-substituents, especially the electronegativity of the substituted atom.
