°C and a solution of 0.0327 g of 23 (0.141 mmol) in 1 mL of Et2O
was added. The reaction mixture was kept at -78 °C for 1 h before
quenching by addition of a saturated solution of NH4Cl. After extraction
with Et2O, the organic layer was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4),
filtered, concentrated, and chromatographed on SiO2 (EtOAc/hexanes,
1:4) to yield 0.0621 g (0.123 mmol, 87%) of 24 as a colorless oil:
[R]D +13.9 (c 1.6, CHCl3); IR (neat) 3070, 2929, 2857, 1711, 1461,
(3R,6S)-N-{[12-Chloro-5-(1-ethoxy)-ethoxy]-3,6-dimethyl-dodeca-
9,11-dienyl}-2-nitro-(N-oct-4-enoyl)benzenesulfonamide ((R,S)-29).
A solution of alcohol (R,S)-28 (0.055g, 0.11 mmol) in 2 mL of freshly
distilled ethyl vinyl ether was cooled to 0 °C and a few crystals of
pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate were added. After 1 h, the mixture was
diluted with Et2O and washed with 1 N NaOH. The organic layer was
extracted with brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated. A
solution of the crude product in 2 mL of THF was treated with 20 µL
(0.2 mmol) of a 1 M solution of TBAF in THF. After 4 h the reaction
mixture was washed with a saturated NH4Cl solution and extracted
with Et2O. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4),
filtered, and concentrated. To a solution of the crude alcohol, 0.0358
g (0.136 mmol) of PPh3, and 0.0557 g (0.171 mmol) of the nosyl-
protected amide 4 in 1.5 mL of THF was added 20 µL (0.13 mmol) of
diethyl azodicarboxylate at room temperature. After 3 h, the reaction
mixture was concentrated under a fast stream of N2 and chromato-
graphed on SiO2 (EtOAc/hexanes, 1:4) to yield 0.063 g (0.098 mmol,
89% from (R,S)-28 of the nosyl-protected amide (R,S)-29 as light
yellow oil that was used without further purification.
(3R,6R)-N-{[12-Chloro-5-(1-ethoxy)-ethoxy]-3,6-dimethyl-dodeca-
9,11-dienyl}-2-nitro-(N-oct-4-enoyl)benzenesulfonamide ((R,R)-29).
Using an analogous procedure as for the preparation of (R,S)-29, 0.0530
g (0.107 mmol) of (R,R)-28 in 2 mL of freshly distilled ethyl vinyl
ether and a few crystals of pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate afforded the
ethoxy ethyl ether. The crude product was dissolved in 2 mL of THF
and treated with 20 µL (0.20 mmol) of a 1 M solution of TBAF. A
solution of the crude desilylated alcohol in 1.5 mL of THF was treated
with 0.0363 g (0.138 mmol) of triphenyl phosphine, 0.0543 g (0.166
mmol) of 4, and 20 µL (0.13 mmol) of diethyl azodicarboxylate to
afford after chromatography on SiO2 (EtOAc/hexanes, 1:4) 0.0534 g
(0.0833 mmol, 89%) of (R,R)-29 as a light yellow oil.

(7S,10R)-Pitiamide A ((7S,10R)-1). To a solution of 0.024 g (0.037
mmol) of (S,R)-29 and 0.014 g (0.099 mmol) of K2CO3 in 2 mL of
DMF was added 12 µL (0.12 mmol) of thiophenol. After 2.5 h, the
reaction mixture was diluted with Et2O and passed through a pad of
basic alumina. The filtrate was washed with saturated NaHCO3 and
brine. The organic layer was dried (MgSO4) and chromatographed on
SiO2 (EtOAc/hexanes, 1:3) to yield 0.0160 g of the deprotected amide
as a colorless oil. This intermediate was immediately dissolved in 1
mL of MeOH and a few crystals of pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate were
added. After 2 h, the reaction mixture was quenched with a solution of
concentrated NaHCO3 and extracted with Et2O. The organic layer was
dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated to yield a colorless oil that
was dissolved in 2 mL of CH2Cl2 and treated with 0.0220 g (0.0512
mmol) of Dess-Martin periodinane. The reaction mixture was stirred
for 3 h and then quenched with saturated NaHCO3 solution. The mixture
was extracted with Et2O, dried (MgSO4), and chromatographed on SiO2
(EtOAc/hexanes, 2:3) to afford 0.0083 g (0.022 mmol, 59%) of (7S,-

h the mixture was carefully quenched by dropwise addition of 1 N
HCl. The mixture was extracted with Et2O, washed with brine, dried
(MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated. The residue was chromatographed
