18. Two approaches were envisaged by us at the very beginning of this project (ref 2f) for the key steps: (i) a macrolactonization under the mildest possible conditions (to avoid epimerization at C2) as the last step, after a J-K reaction (C9-C10 bond); (ii) a ring-closing metathesis under appropriate conditions in the final step, after the ester formation.

45. 20 in the same, rear face). The depicted hydrogen bondings likely help to fix the conformation shown in Figure 1 (left).
46. 29 may be accounted for by the main conformation depicted in Figure 1 (right); other possible minor rotamers (by counterclockwise 60° rotation of the C19-C18 bond and/or by clockwise rotation of the C18-C17 bond) cannot be ruled out.

48. (b) The oxygen atom of the oxolane ring may play a role in this selective cleavage. We would have preferred the reverse cleavage, to obtain mainly the C17-OPMB isomer, saving two steps, since later we need C 18-OH free (and, in principle, C 17-OH protected).
