22. 2-balloon was irradiated without stirring condition for 15 h with a 500 W xenon-lamp through the filter which absorbs the UV of wavelength less than 370 nm, which was set from the test tube in the distance of 45 cm. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The pure product was obtained by purification with preparative TLC.

24. Although the corresponding carboxylic acid was obtained in 45% yield under the same reaction conditions when using benzaldehyde as a substrate, the yield was reduced to 22% yield without iodine. This suggests that hydrogen iodide, generated from iodine, promotes the transformation of 17 and 18.
