22. Because the cyclocondensation of nitrile oxide with 3-hydroxy quinone monoacetal gave the isoxazole in low yield (see Ref. [5d]) a two-step protocol of cycloaddition and subsequent dehydrogenation was devised. The scope and limitations will be reported elsewhere.

55. Purification of 1 by preparative TLC methods using a diolmodified silica-gel plate caused tailing, which decreased the yield of isolated product. In contrast, high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) enabled us to purify 1 without any loss of the material. See the Supporting Information. For a review on HSCCC, see; Y. Ito, J.
