To a solution of the SM (2.31 g, 7.77 mmol) in MeOH (50 mL) and H2O (2.8 mL) was added NaOH (0.46 g, 11.7 mmol). The mixture was heated to reflux for 16 h, then cooled and concentrated in vacuo. The crude was diluted with H2O (100 mL) and acidified with an aq solution of 2M HCl. This aq mixture was extracted with EtOAc (2 x 200 mL) and the combined org extracts were washed with brine (400 mL), dried (MgSO4), and concentrated in vacuo to provide to product as a yellow solid.

A solution of the SM (15.23 g, 37.06 mmol) in conc. HCl (21.80 mL), H2O (68.6 mL), and dioxane (192.6 mL) was stirred at reflux for 5 h. The mixture was concentrated to half its volume (~130 mL), neutralized with sat aq NaHCO3 to PH = 8-9, and extracted with EtOAc (3 x 80 mL). The combined organics were back-extracted with H2O (80 mL). The combined aq layers were acidified to pH = 3 with conc. HCl and extracted with EtOAc (3 x 80 mL). The combined organics were dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated to provide the product as a brown oil. [7.00 g, 48%]
