24. Distilled THF always contains some amount of moisture. This provides partial (hydrated Cu and Co salts) and good (FeCl3) solubility of the metal salts in it and facilitates bimetal redox reactions as well as subsequent C-C bond forming reactions (Scheme 1). It has been observed that in anhydrous THF none of the earlier reactions9a-c took place apparently due to very poor solubility of these metal salts.

28. In general, syn-5a could be identified from its 13C signals of the mixture of 5a and 5b at all regions appearing consistently at more downfield compared to the corresponding signals of anti-5b. This could be evident from the fact that following oxidation of this isomeric mixture and K-selectride reduction of 6 (ref 15), the downfield signals of syn-5a enhanced very much. Hence, by determining the ratio of 13C signals of 5a,b, their relative proportion in a diasterisomeric mixture could be estimated. This could be evident from the 13C-NMR spectra of 5a,b mixtures obtained after low valent Cu mediated benzylation, benzyl Grignard addition and K-selectride reduction that was shown in the Supporting Information.
