The mixture was heated at reflux under N2 for 7 d then cooled, before all volatiles were removed in vacuo to give a black oil. The pure product was obtained by column chromatography (increasing polarity from 10% to 40% EtOAc in pet. sp. as eluant), which gave a black oil. This was dissolved in EtOAc (30 mL) and stirred with activated charcoal for 20 min to remove residual ruthenium, then filtered through celite. Evaporation of the filtrate afforded the title compound (485 mg, 0.785 mmol, 92.6%) as a colorless oil. [α]D 26 -86 (c = 1.0, CHCl3). MS (ES+): m/z (%) = 634.5 (100) [M + 1].

Carbon tetrabromide (604 mg, 1.828 mmol) and triphenylphosphine (475 mg, 1.828 mmol) were added, then the mixture was stirred at 0 °C for 10 min, before Et3N (3.70 g, 36.56 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred at 0 °C for 5 h, then left to stand at 4 °C for 20 h, then stirred at r.t. for 24 h. The mixture was poured into water (50 mL) and extracted with CH2Cl2 (3 × 20 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated to give a black semi-solid. The pure products were obtained by column chromatography (increasing polarity from 5% to 25% EtOAc in petroleum spirit as eluant), which gave the title compound (451 mg, 0.470 mmol, 63.2%) and the partially stable bromide intermediate. The bromide intermediate was dissolved in CH2Cl2 (10 mL) and Et3N (5 mL), then heated at reflux for 3 h.

The mixture was heated in a sealed tube at 90 °C for 3 d and then cooled. The mixture was poured into Et2O (40 mL) and extracted with 1 M HCl (3 × 15 mL). The combined aqueous extracts were evaporated to dryness in vacuo to give a gum. This was dissolved in water (2 mL) and applied to basic ion exchange resin (OH form).
