33. Compound 4a was isolated as an 18:1 mixture of cis/trans isomers. Structures of compounds 4-6, 7, 9, and 11 were established based on 1D-and 2D-NMR studies, including NOESY and HMBC experiments. The structure of 5l was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. CCDC-793325 contains the supplementary crystallographic data for this paper.
