69. Treatment of 8a or 8b with thexylborane followed by oxidation could not improve the ratio of 9 to 10. In each case, the production of 5, which would resulted from 1,2-elimination in the corresponding hydroboration product having a 2-alkoxyalkylborane system, was mainly observed.

71. When Samuelsson's method (P. J. Garegg and B. Samuelsson, Synthesis, 1979, 469) was applied to diol 20b, the reaction could not finish and gave a mixture of the corresponding iodide and 21b. Further treatment of the mixture with Zn was required for the complete conversion to 21b.
