26. 13C signals due to C-2 and C-15 in the literature (Seo, S.; Tomita, Y.; Tori, K. Tetrahedron Lett. 1975, 7) should be reversed in that the signal at δ 28.3 appeared with an accompanying doublet while the signal at δ 27.0 appeared as a singlet. Therefore, the signal for C-2 is δ 28.3 and that for C-15 is δ 27.0.
