“…Firstly, the silyl-protecting group was removed by acidic hydrolysis with Dowex H + in methanol and the unprotected aminodiols anti-V, syn-V, and anti-III were subjected to the second crucial step of the syntheses. The domino Pd(II)-cyclisation/oxycarbonylation reaction was carried out under standard reaction conditions (Gracza et al, 1991;Hümmer et al, 1997) affording bicyclic lac- 3419,3350,3066,3034,2952,2927,2856,1700,1518,1471,1462,1251,1080,835,776,696 3429, 3344, 2952, 2927, 2856, 1692, 1516, 1471, 1462, 1251, 1077, 1027, 835, 775, 3307, 2952, 1779, 1694, 1531, 1417, 1246, 1187, 1147, 1082, 1070, 976, 900, 839, 738, 3506, 3275, 2927, 2856, 1599, 1462, 1404, 1327, 1252, 1158, 1090, 835, 777, 664, 3494, 3275, 2954, 2927, 2856, 1599, 1495, 1471, 1402, 1324, 1252, 1157, 1090, 835, 777, 662, 3510, 3284, 2953, 2928, 2885, 2856, 1598, 1471, 1404, 1327, 1252, 1158, 1089, 835, 813, 778, 665, 3444, 3276, 2992, 2873, 1597, 1495, 1427, 1402, 1319, 1152, 1089, 813, 660, 3423,3271,2924,1714,1599,1427,1402,1320,1306,1152,1089,1034,929,813,662,547 1 H NMR (300 MHz, CD 3 OD), δ: 2.42 (s, 3H, CH 3 in Ts), 3.21 (ddd, 1H, J 1A,2 = 5.1 Hz, J 1B,2 = 5.1 Hz, J 2,3 = 5.9 Hz, H-2), 3.43 (dd, 1H, J 1A,2 = 5.1 Hz, J 1A,1B = 11.3 Hz, H-1A), 3.57 (dd, 1H, J 1B,2 = 5.0 Hz, J 1A,1B = 11.3 Hz, H-1B), 4.08 (tt, 1H, J 3,5A = 1.5 Hz, J 3,5B = 1.5 Hz, J 2,3 = 5.9 Hz, J 3,4 = 5.9 Hz, H-3), 5.05 (dt, 1H, J 3,5A = 1.5 Hz, J 5A,5B = 1. 3483, 2920, 1782, 1598, 1456, 1401, 1337, 1155, 1089, 1042, 813, 656, 588, 3421, 2889, 1756, 1599, 149...…”
