58. Two attempts to reproduce Lee's oxidation of diol 2 were unsuccessful in our hands. We are convinced that Lee's oxidation, and the similar oxidation reported by Smith, are valid. However, these transformations proceed through reactive ortho-quinone intermediates and are difficult to conduct.

63. The spectroscopic data for macrocycle 2 matched those reported by Lee and co-workers; the correlation constitutes a formal synthesis of (-)-kendomycin.
