The diol 2 was converted by treatment with potassium iodide in polyhydrogen fluoride-pyridine into a mixture of the diiodide 5 and homohypostrophene 6.The diol 10 under the same conditions gave the ether 14.Treatment of the mixture of 5 and 6 with sodium in boiling tetrahydrofuran gave an easily-separable mixture of 6 and 7.
