47. Olefin 18 was initially transformed into the α-diol 21 in 67% yield using the Upjohn catalytic dihydroxylation protocol: Van Rheenen, V.; Kelly, R. C.; Cha, D. Y. Tetrahedron Lett. 1987, 1973. It is interesting to note that osmylation proceeds from the least hindered face of the dihydropyran substrate (Scheme 6). Benzoylation of 21, using p-bromobenzoyl chloride (pBBCl) in the presence of catalytic quantities of 4-dimethylamino pyridine, resulted in the preferential formation of the monobenzoylated material 22 accompanied by minor amounts of the bis-benzoylated compound 20. Although crystalline, 22 proved unsuitable for X-Ray analysis, the minor bis-benzoyl derivative 20 gave good quality X-Ray crystals.
