To a solution of monoalcohol, derived from 22 after reduction to
the diol and monosylilation,15,16 (0.264 g, 0.75 mmol) in THF
(6 mL) at 0 °C were added triphenylphosphine (0.299 g, 1.1 mmol),
hydrazoic acid (1.6 M in benzene, 0.712 mL, 1.1 mmol) and DIAD
(0.220 mL, 1.1 mmol). The reaction mixture was then stirred at
rt. When all of the starting material had been consumed (TLC),
the solvent was evaporated and the residue was purified by med-
ium pressure column chromatography (2/8 AcOEt/hexane) to af-

From alcohol 28 (0.187 g, 0.922 mmol) catalyst 6 was obtained

To a solution of diisopropylamine (1.05 mL, 6.8 mmol) in THF
(5.3 mL) at 0 °C was slowly added BuLi (1.6 M in hexanes, 3.9 mL,
6.2 mmol). After 15 min, a solution of 188 (1 g, 2.8 mmol) in THF
(5 mL) was added at ꢀ78 °C. After 30 min at ꢀ78 °C, MeOH
(2.8 mL) was added. After 15 min, saturated aqueous NH4Cl solu-
tion (10 mL) was added and the aqueous layer extracted with
CH2Cl2 (3 ꢂ 8 mL). The organic phase was dried over anhydrous
MgSO4 and concentrated to afford a mixture of isomers 21 and
18 (1.6:1, 1 g, 99% yield) as a yellow oil. To a solution of this mix-
ture (1 g) in MeOH (8 mL) at 0 °C was added NaBH4 (0.171 g,
4.5 mmol) and the mixture was stirred at rt for 1 h. A saturated
aqueous NH4Cl solution (10 mL) was added and the aqueous layer
extracted with AcOEt (3 ꢂ 10 mL). The organic phase was dried
over anhydrous MgSO4 and concentrated. Purification by medium
pressure chromatography (3/7 AcOEt/hexane) afforded 21
(0.549 g) as a colourless oil and trans-diol6 (0.338 g) as white crys-
Azide 23 (0.213 g, 0.60 mmol) was converted into compound 25
(0.265 g, 80%, 2 steps, colourless viscous oil) following the same
procedure for obtaining compound 12 from azide 10.
