29. The yield was calculated after conversion to 13 since the OBO ester 11 was labile upon chromatographic isolation or storage under ambient conditions for gradual conversion to the partially hydrolyzed 12. Contrary to 11, its C3-epimers 8a,b are quite stable under these conditions.

42. 1H NMR. However, the HPLC separation of each isomer was accompanied by a significant loss of the product (see Supporting Informationand ref 5). An improved method for their separation is currently being investigated.
