8. On the other hand, opening of the lactone ring of 7 with (R,R)-pseudoephedrine and protection/activation of the vicinal diol as a sulfite ester, followed by reaction with 3-methylbutanal (as a model) and tetrahydrofuran ring formation with NaH posed diverse problems, such as a moderate yield of the aldol reaction and no cyclization in the last step. Use of a stronger EWG-sulfate instead of sulfite-posed problems also, i.e., poor yields of the sulfate preparation and a premature elimination reaction.
