19. 12. The PMP acetal configuration in 4 and 13 was assigned based upon the nOe's indicated for i. (formula presented)
20. 13. Selective removal of a PMB ether in the presence of a PMP acetal has been reported previously. For example, see: Smith, A. B. III; Qiu, Y.; Jones, D. R.; Kobayashi, K. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1995, 117, 12011. In contrast, our initial route to the aplyronines was revised because of the inability to deprotect the PMB ether in ii without reaction at the PMP acetal.

31. 23. Use of the butyl oxazaborolidine and/or catecholborane as stoichiometric reductant did not improve the selectivity and lower yields resulted (see Corey, E. J.; Bakshi, R. K. Tetrahedron Lett. 1990, 31, 611). Other asymmetric reducing agents such as those derived from LiA1H4 also proved unsatisfactory.
