Assuming that you mean a six-membered ring with two oxygens at the 1 and 4 positions, an OH group at the 2 position and an ethenyl group at the 3 position, the name is:
3-ethenyl-1,4-dioxan-2-ol

Your structural notation is a bit confusing, so I'm not sure if I have the right formula, but I think you have a compound with the empirical formula C6H10O3, with a six-sided ring that is C4O2, with a hydroxyl group off the #2 carbon, and an ethenyl group off the #1 carbon.
If that is a correct interpretation of your structure, then you have 2-ethenyl-3-hydroxy- 1,4- dioxane, or more correctly:
2-ethenyl-3-hydroxy-1,4- dioxacyclohexane
