Procedure

To a suspension of NaH (1.44 g, 60.2 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF)(30 mL) was slowly added 121a (5.80 g, 30.1 mmol) at 0° C. The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 0.5 h, followed by the addition of 2-bromo-1,1-diethoxyethane (11.9 g, 60.2 mmol). The reaction was heated at 70° C. for 30 h and quenched with water (100 mL). The mixture was then extracted with ethyl acetate (3×100 mL). The combined organic phase was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was purified with silica-gel column chromatography eluting with 40:1 petroleum ether/ethyl acetate to afford 121b (4.7 g, 51%).
