27. The product ratio (16/19) was assessed by 1H NMR analaysis (CDCl3, 300 MHz).
28. We also attempted the cyclization before removal of the benzyl group. However, the reaction produced only many unidentified by-products.
29. The same reaction with (R)-valinol gave two diastereomers in high selectivity (18:1). After separation, the major isomer of the (R)-valinol adducts was converted by the same synthetic sequence described in the text. The final product was the 6,7- bis(epimer) of 2, implying that the stereochemical course of the lactone cleavage is mainly decided by the reagent control (by the chirality of the nucleophile), but not by the substrate control (by the chirality in lactone 21).
