The optically pure epoxy acetal was converted to the protected guanidino alcohol by reaction with NaN3 in DMF, hydrogenation of the azide, and reaction of the amine with MeSC(NBoc)NHBoc, AgNO3, and Et3N. Treatment of the protected guanidino alcohol with 9:1 CDCl3/TFA afforded monanchorin, whose absolute stereochemistry was assigned as shown.
