Reaction Steps

(Z)-7-((1R,2R,5S)-2-((R,E)-3-(Benzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)-3-(tert-butyldiphenylsilyloxy)prop-1-enyl)-5-hydroxy-3-methylenecyclopentyl)hept-5-enoic acid (23a) is dissolved in acetone (0.1 M) and cooled to −25° C. Jones reagent (1 molar equivalent) is added dropwise with stirring. Upon completion, as judged by TLC, the reaction is quenched with isopropyl alcohol and the crude reaction mixture is diluted with ethyl acetate, washed three times with brine, and dried over magnesium sulfate. After filtration and solvent evaporation, the product is purified by flash chromatography using hexanes-ethyl acetate as eluent to afford the title intermediate.
