Oxidative cleavage of methyldiphenylsilyl- and triphenylsilylcyclopentanes has been achieved by protodesilylation using boron trifluoride/acetic acid and TBAF followed by oxidation with hydrogen peroxide. Nucleophilic substitution of the initially formed fluorosilane by methanol and water during the Tamao oxidation is demonstrated.
