Abstract: 

The road less traveled does indeed make all the difference. The
reaction of oxyallylic cations with cyclopentadiene usually yields a
[4+3] cycloadduct. Instead, a hydride shift can supersede this
cycloadditon process and proceed in synthetically useful yields (see
scheme). Computational analyses suggest that substantial electronic
effects influence the “road” taken by the oxyallylic cation.
