Procedure

To a stirred solution of 1-[(3aR,5S,6aR)-2,2-dimethyl-3a,5,6,6a-tetrahydrofuro[2,3-d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl]propyl benzoate (compound 26a, 6.73 g, 22.0 mmol) and acetic anhydride (11 mL) in acetic acid (44 mL) and chloroform (11 mL) was added concentrated sulfuric acid (200 uL) dropwise. After being stirred at room temperature overnight, the resulted mixture was diluted with EtOAc (100 mL) and washed with a saturated aqueous solution of NaHCO3 (100 mL) three times. The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (eluting with 1:20 to 1:10 EtOAc in petroleum ether) to afford 5.1 g 1-[(2S,4R)-4,5-diacetoxytetrahydrofuran-2-yl]propyl benzoate (compound 26b) as a viscous oil.
