“…The combined extracts were washed with brine, dried (MgSO 4 ) and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography (EtOAc:hexanes, gradient 1:1 to 2:1) to afford the desired alcohol 26 (1.13 g, 71%) as a colorless oil: IR (film) 2901,2341,1718,1675,1456,1394,1368,1170,1123,669 62 (4H, m), 1.47 (9H, s), 1.43-1.33 (1H, m); 13 C NMR (75 MHz, CDCl 3 ) δ 171. 5,170.6,145.1,136.2,130.4,130.0,129.2,128.2,104.0,74.5,73.7,64.7,60.7,59.7,59.5,54.3,53.8,52.7,45.5,35.1,28.9,28.1,25.4,20.1;HRMS (APCI+) …”
