Reaction Steps

A solution of (6Z,8aR,9R,10R,11aS)-4,5,8,8a,9,10,11,11a-octahydro-9-((S,E)-5-phenyl-3-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yloxy)pent-1-enyl)-10-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yloxy)cyclopenta[b]oxecin-2(3H)-one (3.0 g, 5.57 mmol) in 15 mL tetrahydrofuran (THF) was treated with 2 M ethylamine (31 ml) in THF. This mixture was stirred and heated at 40° C. over 18 hours under an atmosphere of nitrogen. The mixture was diluted with 50 mL water and the pH was adjusted to 6 with 1N HCl. The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with 20 mL ethyl acetate twice. The organic layer is dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. Then, the crude product was purified by column chromatography providing 2.4 g of the title compound (73.8% yield).
