Synthesis of
7a from 5a:
7a To a solution of the
triol 5a (0.520 g, 2.22 mmol, 1.00 equiv)
in CH2Cl2 (50 mL) at 0 ˚C were successively
added KBr (0.748 g, 6.29 mmol, 2.83 equiv), TEMPO (0.070 g, 0.446
mmol, 0.200 equiv) and NaOCl (2.00 mL, 24.4 mmol, 11.0 equiv). The
suspension was stirred for 1 h at 0 ˚C and for 5 h at r.t.
After this time the mixture was washed with H2O (40 mL),
1 M HCl (40 mL) and brine (40 mL). The organic phase was dried over Na2SO4 and
evaporated under vacuum. The residue was purified by flash column
chromatography (cyclohexane-EtOAc, 3:1), yielding 7a (1.77 g, 26%) as a colorless
oil.
7b (b) DMP (5.66 mL, 2.00 mmol, 2.00
equiv, 15% in CH2Cl2) was added to
a solution of the triol 5a (0.236 g, 1.00
mmol, 1.00 equiv) in CH2Cl2 (50 mL). The suspension
was stirred for 18 h at r.t. After this time the mixture was quenched
with sat. NaHCO3 solution (50 mL) and extracted with
CH2Cl2
(3 × 30 mL). The
organic phase was dried over Na2SO4, evaporated,
and the residue was purified by flash column chromatography (cyclohexane-EtOAc,
3:1), yielding 7a
(46 mg, 20%)
as a colorless oil.
Synthesis
of 7a from 9a:
7c To a solution of the
diol 9a (0.372 g, 1.59 mmol, 1.00 equiv)
in CH2Cl2 (31.5 mL) and MeCN (6.30 mL) were
added NMO (0.560 g, 4.75 mmol, 3.00 equiv) and molecular sieve (1.00
g). After stirring for 30 min TPAP (0.112 g, 0.317 mmol 0.200 equiv)
was added and the mixture was refluxed for 2 h. The solvent was evaporated
and the residue was purified by flash column chromatography (cyclohexane-EtOAc,
3:1), yielding 7a (0.113 g, 22%)
as a colorless oil.
7d (d) DMP (5.66 mL, 2.00 mmol, 2.00
equiv, 15% in CH2Cl2) was added to
a solution of the diol 9a (0.234 g, 1.00
mmol, 1.00 equiv) in CH2Cl2 (10 mL) and the
suspension was stirred for 1 h at 0 ˚C and for 5 h at r.t.
After this time the mixture was quenched with sat. NaHCO3 solution
(10 mL) and extracted with CH2Cl2 (3 × 20
mL). The organic phase was dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated
under vacuum. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography
(cyclohexane-EtOAc, 3:1), yielding 7a (93
mg, 40%) as a colorless oil.

Crystal Structure
Determinations: All single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies
were carried out on a Bruker-Nonius Kappa-CCD diffractometer
at 123 (2) K using MoKα radiation (λ = 0.71073 Å).
Direct Methods (SHELXS-97)¹³ were used
for structure solution (1b was solved by
Patterson methods) and refinement was carried out using SHELXL-97¹³ (full-matrix
least-squares on F
²
).
Hydrogen atoms were localized by difference electron density determination
and refined using a riding model [H(O) free].
A semi-absorption correction was applied for 1b and7b.
