Procedure

The crude acid 29 (6.333 g) was treated with a 1% solution of acetyl chloride in methanol (60 mL). After 16 h, sodium bicarbonate (1.966 g, 23.4 mmol) was added. The mixture was dried (MgSO4), filtered through celite and evaporated in vacuo. Purification by flash chromatography on silica gel (30-40% ethyl acetate/hexanes) gave 7-Hydroxy-hept-5-ynoic acid methyl ester 30 (3.022 g, 19.3 mmol, 92% from 7-(tert-Butyl-dimethyl-silanyloxy)-hept-2-yn-1-ol 27).
