  • A typical procedure is as follows: To a solution of 2 (5.3 g, 13.5 mmol) in THF (21 ml) was added 172 mg PdCl2(CH3CN)2. The mixture was stirred at room temperature under Ar atmosphere for 3.5 h. Then hexane was added, the solution filtered and the solvent removed in vacuo. Column chromatography of the crude product eluting with hexane/EtOAc 9:1 afforded 3 (10%) and 4 (89%)

  • The general procedure is as follows: To a solution of the methyl ester 7 in hexane was added SiO2 (Merck 600.2–0.63 mm, 10:1, with respect to the substrate). The mixture was shaken at 100°C for 45 min. The reaction was monitored by TLC by suspension of a little portion of the mixture in 0.5 ml of solvent). When the reaction was complete, the product was extracted from SiO2 eluting with hexane
