followed by evaporation of the ether gave a yellow oil. The solution
of yellow oil in dry methylene chloride (10 mL) was added into
pyridinium chlorochromate (2.6 g, 12.1 mmol) in dry methylene
chloride (12 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient
temperature for 4 h and was filtered through Celite. The filtrate
was chromatographed to afford 0.3 g of 10e (22%). 1H NMR (600

solution of compound 10e (170 mg, 0.29 mmol) in 10 mL of TFA
was added 0.6 mL of triethylsilane dropwise. The solution was
stirred overnight at room temperature and concentrated in vacuo
followed by silica gel column chromatography to give compound
11e as a colorless oil (140 mg, 90%). 1H NMR (600 MHz, CDCl3)

2.88 mmol) was added dropwise to a solution of 11e (200 mg,
0.30 mmol) in 8 mL of anhydrous CH2Cl2 at -78 °C. Stirring
was continued at -78 °C for 1 h, 0 °C for 1 h, and ambient
temperature for 1 h, respectively. Then 100 g of ice containing
10 mL of 6 M HCl was added to the mixture and stirred for 1 h
at room temperature. The aqueous layer was extracted with
dichloromethane (3 ꢀ 50 mL). The combined organic layer was
washed with water, brine and dried over MgSO4. The solvent
was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was purified by C-18
column chromatography (H2O/acetonitrile) to give 128 mg of
compound 12e (75%) as an orange solid. 1H NMR (600 MHz,

pound 4 (2.8 g, 5.1 mmol) was added in portions to 36 mL of
concentrated sulfuric acid. The solution was vigorous stirred for
50 min at room temperature. The reaction mixture was poured
onto ice and water mixture. The solution was extracted with
chloroform, and the organic layer was washed with water, dilute
ammonium hydroxide, and brine, dried, and concentrated
under vacuum. Purification by flash chromatography (10%
acetonitrile in CH2Cl2) followed by recrystallization from ben-
zene/methanol afforded 1.2 g of white solid as methylated

mmol) solution at room temperature was added a solution of 5

reaction mixture was stirred at this temperature for 12 h. The
reaction mixture was poured onto saturated ammonium chloride
solution, and the aqueous layer was extracted twice with diethyl
ether, washed with brine, and dried over MgSO4. Filtration
