General Methods All reactions were performed under nitrogen atmosphere unless otherwise noted. All commercially available reagents were used without further purification unless otherwise noted. Dichloromethane was distilled from CaH2 under nitrogen. Diethyl ether and tetrahydrofuran were freshly distilled from benzophenone ketyl radical under nitrogen prior to use. M.p. was determined with a Yanaco MP hot-stage apparatus and was uncorrected. IR spectra were recorded on a Shimadzu FT / IR-4200 spectrophotometer in chloroform unless otherwise indicated. 1H-NMR spectra were obtained for solutions in deuteriochloroform with JEOL DATUM 270 (270 MHz) and Varian Unity 500 plus (500 MHz) instruments with tetramethylsilane as internal standard. J-values are in Hz. 13C-NMR spectra were obtained for solutions in deuteriochloroform with JEOL DATUM 270 (67.5 MHz) Varian Unity 500 plus (125 MHz) instruments. Mass spectral data were obtained with a JEOL GC-Mate spectrometer. Specific rotations were measured with a Horiba SEPA-200 spectrophotometer for solutions in chloroform unless otherwise indicated. Medium pressure LC (MPLC) were carried out on Hitachi LC system.

A solution of enone 4 (11.0 g, 47 mmol) in 10 % methanolic solution of KOH (155 mL) was vigorously stirred in an open air at room temperature for 2.7 days. After addition of solid ammonium chloride (13 g), methanol was evaporated under reduced pressure. From the residue, product was extracted with ethyl acetate twice and the combined organic layer was washed successively with water and brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated to dryness.

A toluene solution of m-CPBA was treated with sodium hydrogencarbonate prior to use. To a stirred mixture of aq. sodium hydrogencarbonate (1 mg) in water (18 µL), extra m-CPBA (2 mg, 0.01 mmol) in toluene (90 µL) was added TES enol ether 19 (3 mg, 0.07 mmol) in toluene (18 µL) at 0 oC under nitrogen atmosphere. After being stirred for 40 min at 0 oC, m-CPBA (1 mg, 0.007 mmol) in toluene (45 µL) was added and stirring was continued for 50 min at 0 oC. The reaction was quenched by addition of aq. sodium hydrogensulfite. Product was extracted with ethyl acetate twice and combined organic layer was washed with aq. sodium hydrogencarbonate and brine successively. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated to dryness to give crude silylether of 2-epi-salvinorin B (3 mg). To a crude silyl ether (3 mg) was added acetic acid (23 µL) and water (23 µL) in THF (45 µL) at room temperature.
