trans-Oak lactone VII: Oxidation of 183 (0.350 g, 0.88 mmol) with PCC (0.218 g, 1.49<br />

mmol) and NaOAc (0.041 mg, 0.50 mmol) in CH 2 Cl 2 (30 mL), and work-up followed by<br />

removal of solvent in vacuo yielded crude aldehyde (0.310 g). This was desilylated with<br />

Bu 4 NF (1.3 mL, 1.3 mmol, 1 M in THF) in THF (10 mL) at 0 °C. Usual work-up and<br />

removal of solvent in vacuo yielded relatively unstable lactol 184 (0.080 g), which on<br />

oxidation with PCC (0.185 g, 0.860 mmol) in CH 2 Cl 2 (10 mL), followed by usual work-up<br />

and colum chromatography (silica gel, 0-15 % EtOAc/hexane) afforded pure VII. Yield:<br />

[α] D + 93 (c 0.2, CHCl 3)]; 1 H NMR: δ 0.91 (t, J = 7.2 Hz, 3H), 1.02 (d, J = 6.8<br />

Hz, 3H), 1.19-1.65 (m, 6H), 2.16-2.21 (m, 2H), 2.62-2.71 (m. 1H), 3.96-4.02 (m, 1H); 13 C<br />
