“…After evaporation of the solvent, the crude was purified by silica gel chromatography using a light petroleum ether/EtOAc 6/1 to give the product 12 (0.75 mmol, 75% yield from 3 ). The spectroscopic data of 12 matched the ones reported in the literature ( Hon et al, 2007 ). 1 H-NMR (CDCl 3 ) δ 4.02 (m, 1H), 3.73 (s, 3H), 2.53 (dd, J = 3 Hz, 16.4 Hz, 1H), 2.43 (dd, J = 9.1 Hz, 16.4 Hz, 1H), 1.57-1.29 (m, 20H), 0.90 (t, J = 6.8 Hz, 3H).…”
