32. 4 and concentrated in vacuo. The remaining residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel to give 85% of 1b.
33. (16) Addition of pyridine had unpredictable results. For example, it suppressed the dehydration of 1a and decreased the yield of 1b to 70% due to the contamination of dark-brown byproducts derived from pyridine.
