(7R,8S)-8-[(tert-Butyldiphenylsilyl)oxy]-7-(methoxymethoxy)nonan-1-ol (11). To a stirred solution of alcohol
10 (1.1 g, 2.7 mmol) in EtOAc (10 mL) was added Pd/C (10%, 10 mg) at r.t. and was stirred for 10 h, under a
hydrogen atmosphere. After completion of the reaction, it was filtered through celite and the filtrate was
evaporated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by column chromatography using silica
gel by eluting with a EtOAc-hexane (2:8) mixture to afford alcohol 11 (0.98 g, 93%) as a colourless oil. Optical

(5R,6S)-5-(6-Iodohexyl)-6,9,9-trimethyl-8,8-diphenyl-2,4,7-trioxa-8-siladecane (12). To a stirred solution of
compound 11 (0.9 g, 2.0 mmol) in a toluene-acetonotrile (3:1, 15 mL) mixture were added TPP (0.46 g, 1.76
mmol), imidazole (0.2 g, 2.7 mmol) and iodine (0.75 g, 1.8 mmol). The mixture was then stirred for 30 min at
r.t. and changed to a thick brown color. After completion of the reaction (confirmed by TLC), the reaction
o
mixture was quenched by adding a saturated Hypo at 0 C and was stirred for 15 min. The mixture was
extracted with EtOAc (2x10 mL) and the combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4
and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The crude compound was purified by column
chromatography using silica gel (60-120 mesh) by eluting with a EtOAc-hexane (5:95) mixture to afford, iodide

8,8-diphenyl-2,4,7-trioxa-8-siladecane (13). To a stirred solution of alkyne 3 (0.56 g, 2.3 mmol) in a THF-
o
HMPA (2:1, 5 mL) mixture was added dropwise n-BuLi (0.78mL, 2.0 mmol) at -78 C under a nitrogen
atmosphere. While adding n-BuLi dropwise, the reaction mass converted to a brown color and was then
stirred for a further 30 min at the same temperature. Then, a solution of iodo compound 12 (0.9 g, 1.5 mmol),
which was dissolved in THF (5 mL), was added. The reaction mixture was stirred for a further 1 h, and gradually
warmed to room temperature. After completion of the reaction, the reaction was terminated with saturated
NH4Cl and extracted with EtOAc (2x20 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over
Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography using
silica gel (60-120 mesh) by eluting with a EtOAc-hexane (0.5:9.5) mixture to afford 13 (0.76 g, 73%) as a color
