Preparation of 4-bromo-1-t-butyldimethylsilyloxybutane (13)[8].
To a stirred solution of alcohol 4 (2.0 g, 9.8 mmol) in dichloromethane (40 mL) was added
triethylamine (1.5 mL, 10.8 mmol) and methanesulfonyl chloride (0.83 mL, 10.7 mmol) at 0˚C. The
mixture was stirred for 1 h and sat. NaHSO4 soln. was added. The mixture was extracted with ether.
The organic layer was washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4), and was evaporated to afford mesylate 12
(2.4 g, 88%). To a stirred solution of mesylate 12 (2.4 g, 8.6 mmol) in dry THF (60 mL) was added
lithium bromide (1.13 g, 13.0 mmol) and the mixture was refluxed overnight. Sat. NaHSO4 was added
and the mixture was extracted with pentane. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4),
and was evaporated to afford a residue, which was purified by silica gel column chromatography

Preparation of 8-t-butyldimethylsilyloxy-2-methyl-2-octen-4-ol (15).
A solution of aldehyde 14 (200 mg, 2.38 mmol) in dry THF (5 mL) was added slowly to the
Grignard reagent prepared from 13 (1.27 g, 4.76 mmol) and Mg (120 mg, 4.76 mmol) in dry THF (5
mL). The mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. Water and sat. ammonium chloride soln.
were added and the mixture was extracted with ether. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried
(Na2SO4), and was evaporated to afford a residue, which was purified by silica gel column
chromatography (5-100 % hexane-EtOAc) to give alcohol 15 (399 mg, 62%); FTIR: 3350, 840, 780
