Abstract

OC, as determined by'H and I3C NMR spectros~ opy.~ The foregoing predictions were borne out when treatment of ketone 8 with t-BuOK (1 5 equiv) and Me1 (10 equiv) in THF at room temperature produced 11 (mp 88" C) and 12 (mp 91" C) in 68% and 17% yields, respectively, after flash chromatography. Furthermore, in accord with the previous analysis, when 12 was resubmitted to the alkylation conditions it was recovered unchanged."
