23. The desilylation of the TMS group with KF proceeded very slowly for 10 as a result of steric hindrance and therefore, TBAF was used in this step. The desilylation of the triisopropylsilyl (TIPS) group was not observed when the reaction was carried out in chloroform. In contrast, the desilylation of the TMS and TIPS groups took place rapidly for 13 in THF.

25. The bathochromic shift could be attributed to the through-space interactions between the chromophores. Further studies will reveal this point.
