Position of 18o-labeled methanol in the products

The 18O label will appear at position b in the product as indicated in the image.

This methoxy group in the product formed in position b comes from the 18O-labeled methanol (CH3OH).

While the oxygens at positions a and c in the product come from the unlabeled hemiacetal.
