Procedure
To a solution of (3aR,5S,6aR)-2,2-dimethyl-3a,5,6,6a-tetrahydrofuro[2,3-d][1,3]dioxole-5-carbaldehyde (4.0 g, 23.2 mmol) in THF (20 mL) was added cyclopentylmagnesium bromide (1M in THF, 30 mL, 30 mmol) at −20° C. under argon. After being stirred at −20° C. for 20 hours, the reaction was quenched by saturated NH4Cl solution. The reaction mixture was extracted with EtOAc (30 mL) three times. The organic layers were combined and concentrated in vacuo to afford 1.2 g crude product of [(3aR,5S,6aR)-2,2-dimethyl-3a,5,6,6a-tetrahydrofuro[2,3-d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl]-cyclopentyl-methanol (compound 11a) as a colorless oil, which was used in next step without further purification. MS obsd. (ESI+) [(M+H)+]: 243.
