A solution of compound 27a (0.021 g, 0.047 mmol) in CH2Cl2
(1.0 mL) was cooled to -78 °C and diethylaminosulfur trifluoride
(33 ꢀL, 0.24 mmol) added. The mixture was stirred at -78 °C for
90 mins. The mixture was quenched with a sat. solution of
NaHCO3 (2 mL) at -78 °C, allowed to warm-up slowly to room
temperature and extracted with CH2Cl2 (3 x 5 mL). The organic
extracts were combined, dried (MgSO4), filtered and
concentrated under reduced pressure to give the crude compound
as red oil which was purified by flash column chromatography

A solution of 1.0 M solution of TBAF in THF was added to a
solution of compound 26a (0.055 g, 0.090 mmol) in THF (1.5
mL) at 0 °C. The mixture was left to stir at 0 °C for 10 mins and
then quenched with a saturated solution of NH4Cl (6 mL) at 0 °C,
allowed to warm to room temperature, extracted with EtOAc (3 x
15 mL). The organic extracts were combined and washed with a
saturated solution of NH4Cl (3 x 20 mL), dried (MgSO4), filtered
and concentrated under reduced pressure to give the crude
compound as red oil which was purified by flash-column
chromatography (gradient elution: 90% EtOAc/petroleum ether –

A solution of compound 28a or 28b (13 mg, 0.030 mmol) in
CH2Cl2 (2 mL) was cooled to 0 °C and 1.0 M tin(IV) chloride
solution in CH2Cl2 (0.15 mL, 0.15 mmol) was added. The
mixture was stirred at 0 °C for 3 h, after which an additional
volume of 1.0 M tin(IV) chloride solution in CH2Cl2 (0.15 mL,
0.15 mmol) added and left to stir at 0 °C for 1 h. The mixture was
quenched at 0 °C with a 0.1 M solution of HCl (5 mL). The
CH2Cl2 layer was separated and the aqueous layer was
neutralised to pH=7 with a saturated solution of NaHCO3 and
extracted with EtOAc (3 x 10 mL). The organic extracts were
combined, dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated under
reduced pressure to give the crude compound as a waxy solid
