22. Initially we performed this oxidation according to the known protocol (NCS/t-BuOK) to give 10 in moderate yield. Use of DBU instead t-BuOK resulted in the substantially improved yield of 10: R.A. Bartsch, and B.R. Cho J. Am. Chem. Soc. 101 1979 3587
23. The stereochemistries of 11 and 12 were confirmed by preparation and NOE experiments of cyclic products 1 and 14, respectively.

25. In this case, the starting compound 14 was recovered (33%). The prolonged reaction time or increased reaction temperature resulted in consumption of 14 and more formation of ent-13 than 7.
