47. 2 at r.t. for 2 d provided the aromatic spiroketal 7a in 61% yield.
48. 2 (4 mL). After the reaction mixture had been stirred at r.t. for 2 d, the solvent was removed and the residue purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (hexane-EtOAc, 8:1 v/v) to give the bisspiroketal 7a (30.0 mg, 62%) as a white solid.
