12. In the synthetic work published in ref. 3, discriminating between the two primary hydroxyl groups was achieved by an enzymatic acetylation towards substrate 3 and diastereoisomeric monoacetate of diol 3 was obtained with a ratio of 13: 1. In our case, bromoetherification of diol 3 led to only desired diastereisomer 15.
