General 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.

Thiophenolate 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).
