Procedure

2 g (3.58 mmole, from Example 18) of (1R,2R,3aS,9aS)-2,3,3a,4,9,9a-hexahydro-2-(tert-butyldimethyl-silyoxy)-1-((S,E)-3-(tert-butyldimethylsilyoxy)oct-1-enyl)-1H-cyclopenta[b]naphthalen-5-ol, which contains 6% para-cyclized isomer, in dry tetrahydrofuran (20 ml) was treated with sodium hydride (0.29 g, 7.16 mol) at 0° C. and stirred for 10 minutes at room temperature, followed by dropwise addition of benzoyl chloride (0.63 ml, 5.37 mmol). After 30 minutes, the reaction was cooled to 10° C., diluted with ice cold brine (10 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (10 ml). The reaction mixture was phase separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layers were combined and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solid was filtered off. The solvent was evaporated off under vacuum. The crude product was purified by chromatography on silica gel using a mixture of hexane and ethyl acetate as a gradient eluent. 2.1 g of (1R,2R,3aS,9aS)-2,3,3a,4,9,9a-hexahydro-2-(tert-butyldimethylsilyoxy)-1-((S,E)-3-(tert-butyldimethylsilyoxy)oct-1-enyl)-1H-cyclopenta[b]naphthalen-5-yl benzoate was obtained. The product was then dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (4.2 ml), and treated with acetic acid (12.6 ml) and distilled water (4.2 ml) overnight at room temperature. The reaction then was diluted with saturated sodium bicarbonate aqueous (50 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (60 ml). The reaction mixture was phase separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layers were combined and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solid was filtered off. The solvent was evaporated off under vacuum. The crude product was purified by chromatography on silica gel using a mixture of hexane and ethyl acetate as a gradient eluent. The product was obtained in a crystalline form. MP: 140˜141° C. Yield: 68%.
