19. When the reaction of 15 and 12a was examined in THF at 50 °C for 3 h (see below), 16 was obtained as an almost sole product in 68% yield along with a trace amount of 17.
20. 2, EtOAc) afforded 14a as a colorless solid (159 mg, 62%). An analytical sample of 14a was prepared by recrystallization from EtOAc.
21. We subjected 18a to tritylation, acetylation, triisopropylsilylation and methoxymethylation under the standard reaction conditions. Although formation of the desired compounds corresponding to 19a was observed in tritylation, acetylation and triisopropylsilylation, these products were found to be too unstable to be isolated in pure states. In the case of methoxymethylation, a complex mixture was obtained as the reaction product.
