29. The stereochemistry of the C(16) hydroxy group was assigned based on the usual sense of asymmetric induction in Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation reactions, and was not rigorously determined at this stage.
30. The two diastereomers were inseparable by standard column chromatography. Purification of the major diastereomer was performed by HPLC.
