45. The stereochemical assignment at C14 was also based on extensive literature precedent (see for example refs 3a and 3c).
46. 3 gave lower yields.
47. The loss of isomer 15 with respect to 14 is probably due to the instability of the corresponding epoxide.
48. N2′ displacement by organocopper reagents is well documented, to our knowledge the ring-opening of vinyl oxiranes by alcohols in the presence of Lewis acid according to such a process is unprecedented.
