1-en-4-ol 130. To a cooled (10 °C) and stirred mixture of 129 (1.95 g, 4.17 mmol), Zn dust<br />

(0.543 g, 8.34 mmol) and allyl bromide (1.01 g, 8.34 mmol) in THF (25 mL) was dropwise<br />

added aqueous saturated NH 4 Cl (8 mL) in 30 min. The mixture was stirred for 4 h at<br />

ambient temperature until the aldehyde was totally consumed (TLC). The mixture was<br />

filtered, the precipitate thoroughly washed with EtOAc, the aqueous layer separated,<br />

acidified with 5% aqueous HCl, and the clear solution extracted with EtOAc (30 mL). The<br />

organic extract was washed successively with aqueous 10% NaHCO 3 , H 2 O and brine, and<br />

dried. Solvent removal in vacuo gave a residue which was column chromatographed (silica<br />

gel, 0-25% EtOAc/ hexane) to isolate 130 as an inseparable diastereomeric mixture. Yield:<br />

1.61 g (76%); colourless oil; IR: 3443 cm -1 ; 1 H NMR: δ 1.06 ( overlapping s and d, J = 7.2<br />

4-one 131. To a cooled (0 °C) and stirred suspension of PCC (1.02 g, 4.68 mmol) and<br />

NaOAc (0.09 g, 1.11 mmol) in CH 2 Cl 2 (20 mL) was added the alcohol 130 (1.59 g, 3.12<br />
