All reactions were carried out under the standard conditions
unless otherwise noted. Column chromatography was
performed using silica gel (200-300 mesh). 1H NMR and 13C
NMR spectra were recorded on a 400 MHz NMR spectrometer,
and the chemical shifts are referenced to signals at 7.26 and
77.0 ppm, respectively. Generally, chloroform was used as the
solvent with TMS as the internal standard. MS analyses were
performed on an Agilent 5975 GC-MS instrument (EI). HRMS
was carried out on a high-resolution mass spectrometer (ESI,
LCMS-IT-TOF). The structure of known compounds was

data and MS data with those in literature. Melting points were
measured with a BÜCHI B-545 melting point instrument
without correction. All reagents were obtained from
commercial suppliers and used without further purification.
