12. In a typical experiment, 0.1 g of the lactol (0.35-0.5 mmol) and 1.2 equiv of IBX in 10 mL of the ethyl acetate-DMSO (9:1) mixture were heated at reflux. The progress of the reaction was monitored by TLC analysis. After 2.5-3.0 h, the reaction mixture was cooled, the insoluble matter was filtered, and the resultant product mixture was subjected to short pad silica-gel column chromatography to isolate pure lactones.
