Confident that we had assignecl both the stereochernistry <strong>and</strong> diastereoselectivity<br />

<strong>of</strong> methylation, we then investigated other alkylations. Ethyl iodide, allyl bromide <strong>and</strong><br />

benzyl bromide were al1 used as alkylating agents following optimized conditions<br />
