The stereoselective introduction of the C15 OH group on the w side chain of prostaglandins has presented a challenge for synthetic chemists. Recently, Mulzer and co-workers demonstrated a new route in which the w side chain is synthesized independently and then attached to the bicyclic counterpart. What is the appropriate sequence of reagents for the following synthesis?
