Procedure

A solution of n-butyl lithium in hexane (119 ml, 1.6M, 0.19 mol) is added dropwise to a solution of diisopropylamine (19.3 g, 0.191 mol) in THF (100 ml) cooled in an ice bath. After the additiion, the mixture is stirred for 20 minutes then cooled to -78°. A solution of 6-t-butyldimethylsilyloxy-hexan-2-one (40.0 g, 0.174 mol) in THF is added dropwise. The resultant mixture is stirred for 90 minutes then a solution of 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-acetaldehyde (25.1 g, 0.174 mol) in THF (100 ml) is added dropwise. After the addition, the mixture is stirred for 2 hours, then water (10 ml) slowly added. The mixture is warmed to 0°, diluted with water (300 ml) and extracted with ether (2×500 ml). The extracts are washed with saturated brine, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure to leave the crude product (63.5 g) an oil. A portion of this material (46 g) is chromatographed on silica gel (2.5 Kg) eluting with 25% ethyl acetate/hexane to give the title compound, 8-t-butyldimethylsilyloxy-1-(2,2-dimethyl-1,3-doxolan-4-yl)-2-hydroxyoctan-4-one; (23 g, 49%) an oil.
