Hom oa llyl Alcoh ols 16a -f. To a solution of the appropriate
allyl (benzotriazol-1-yl)methyl ether 13 (1.7 mmol) in THF (100
mL) at -78 °C under argon was added n-BuLi (2.4 mL, 4.3
mmol, 1.8 M in cyclohexane). The mixture was stirred and
allowed to warm to room temperature overnight. Water (50
mL) was added, and the mixture was extracted with diethyl
ether (3 × 50 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried
over MgSO4, filtered, and evaporated to dryness. The crude
product was subjected to column chromatography (hexanes:
ethyl acetate ) 5:1) to give the pure product.

alcohol (20 mmol), an aldehyde (20 mmol), and benzotriazole
(2.6 g, 21.8 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (60 mL) at room temperature were
added p-toluenesulfonic acid (1.9 g, 10 mmol) and molecular
sieves (4 Å, 30 g). After the mixture was stirred at room
temperature for 2 days, the molecular sieves were removed
by filtration and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was
dissolved in diethyl ether (100 mL), and the solution was
washed with an aqueous NaOH solution (60 mL, 5 N). The
aqueous layer was extracted with diethyl ether (3 × 50 mL),
and the combined organic extracts were dried over MgSO4,
filtered, and evaporated to dryness. The crude product was
subjected to column chromatography (hexanes:ethyl acetate
) 20:1) to give the pure product.
