30. The minor isomer from tetrabutylammonium fluoride-mediated exhaustive desilylation of the product from Table 1, entry 8, was identical to that derived from desilylation of the major product from Table 2, entry 9.
31. Entries 1 and 2 in Table 2 are duplicated from the optimization studies described in Table 1.
32. Additionally, the stereochemistry of the example from Table 1, entry 4, was confirmed by conversion of that product into the dibenzylated material, which was identical to the dibenzylated compound derived from the Table 1, entry 3, product. See Supporting Information for details.
