“…The combined organic extracts were washed with brine (5 mL) and dried over Na 2 SO 4 . The solvent was removed under vacuum, and residue was purified by a flash column chromatography on silica gel (petroleum ether/ethyl acetate = 15:1) to give product 47 (239.0 mg, 0.47 mmol, 84%, single isomer) as a white solid . Data for 47 : R f 0.78 (4:1, petroleum ether:ethyl acetate); mp = 156–158 °C; 1 H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl 3 ) δ 5.80–5.70 (m, 1H), 5.42 (s, 1H), 5.18–5.10 (m, 2H), 5.06–5.03 (m, 1H), 4.67 (s, 2H), 4.34 (s, 1H), 3.92 (s, 1H), 3.81 (d, J = 11.0 Hz, 1H), 3.57 (d, J = 11.0 Hz, 1H), 3.35 (s, 3H), 3.22 (d, J = 9.9 Hz, 1H), 2.33–2.26 (m, 1H), 2.21–2.16 (m, 1H), 2.12–2.03 (m, 1H), 1.83 (s, 3H), 1.70 (s, 3H), 1.24 (s, 1H), 1.00 (d, J = 7.6 Hz, 3H), 0.27 (s, 9H); 13 C{ 1 H} NMR (100 MHz, CDCl 3 ) δ 225.4, 173.6, 143.9, 136.8, 123.3, 117.0, 83.6, 83.1, 79.8, 77.3, 76.9, 56.6, 52.8, 52.5, 43.1, 38.0, 35.3, 21.7, 20.4, 1.8; IR (thin film) υ max 3463, 3441, 2955, 1778, 1636, 1279, 1255, 1069, 1029, 916, 848, 756, 712, 668, 534, 493,451; HRMS (ESI) m / z : [M + H] + calcd for C 22 H 38 BrO 6 Si: 505.1616, found: 505.1610.…”
