- 2. The process of claim 1, wherein Z denotes a hydrogen atom or a protective group for the hydroxyl group selected from the group consisting of a trimethylsilyl group, a t-butyldimethylsilyl group, a methoxymethyl group, a benzyloxymethyl group, a trityl group and a tetrahydropyranyl group.
- 3. The process of claim 1, wherein R.sup.1 denotes a hydrogen atom, an unsubstituted C.sub.1-10 alkyl group or a member selected from the group consisting of ##STR54## wherein THP denotes a tetrahydropyranyl group, .sup.t Bu denotes a tertiary butyl group, and EE denotes an ethoxyethyl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl group selected from the group consisting of ##STR55##
- 4. The process of claim 1, wherein said nucleophilic reagent (VI) is selected from the group consisting of R.sup.2 Li, R.sup.2 MgBr, R.sup.2 MgI, R.sup.2 R.sup.6 CuQli.sub.2, R.sup.2 CuQli, R.sup.2 (R.sup.6).sub.2 AlQLi, R.sup.2 (R.sup.1).sub.2 Al, R.sup.2 R.sup.6 CuQliMgBr, and R.sup.2 CuQMgBr, wherein R.sup.6 denotes a group selected from substituted or unsubstituted C.sub.1-10 alkyl group, alkenyl group, alkynyl group, alkylthio group, alkylamino group, alkylsilyl group, alkyloxy group, alkylcarbonyl group, and cyano group; R.sup.2 and R.sup.6 may be the same or different from each other; and Q denotes a halogen atom, cyano group, alkylthio group, arylthio group, or thiocyano group.
- 5. The process of claim 1, wherein the amount of the nucleophilic reagent (VI) is 0.8 to about 1.2 equivalents for the compound (II b).
- 6. The process of claim 1, wherein the amount of the nucleophilic reagent (VI) is about 0.5 to about 4 equivalents for the compound (II b).
- 7. The process of claim 1, wherein the reaction is carried out in a solvent selected from the group consisting of tetrahydrofuran, hexane, pentane, and diethyl ether.
- 8. The process of claim 1, wherein the reaction temperature is -100.degree. to about 50.degree. C.
