30. As the absolute stereochemistry of the C14-C16 epoxide of altromycin has not been established, it is desirable to synthesize both epoxide enantiomers of 1. Thus, treatment of 19 with AD-mix-α under the same conditions produced ent-20 (12:1 er), which was converted into ent-1.

32. (b) The use of ethanethiol (ref 17a) resulted in ethanethiol substitution at Cl2 as the sole product, but the more bulky tert-butanethiol was successfully applied to give only 21.
