5General Procedure: Protected compound (1.0 equiv) was dissolved in MeOH/THF (1:1) in a sealed vial and stirred with thiophenolate resin 1 (1.45 mmol/g, 0.2 equiv). The reaction was heated as described herein. When reaction was complete, the resin was removed by filtration and washed with THF. The combined washings were dried in vacuo. If starting material remained, the product was isolated by standard column chromatography.
6Thiophenolate Resin: Polymer-supported thiophenol was shaken at r.t. under argon with potassium trimethylsilanolate in THF. After 2 d, the resin was rinsed with THF and dried in vacuo (1.45 mmol/g).
7All compounds gave satisfactory spectroscopic data identical to those reported in the literature.
9Resin was filtered, washed with CH2Cl2 three times, and dried in vacuo before reusing.
