Alternatively, flash chromatography in hexanes afforded a 93:7 mixture of oct-1-en-2-yl triflate and its isomeric internal triflate.

56. 2, should be kept at about 2-3 mol% as the use of larger excesses in reactions of 1a was observed to lead occasionally to the formation of diene byproducts i and to loss of diastereoselectivity in the formation of diols 2. (formula presented)
