The resulting orange solution was stirred for thirty minutes, cooled to −78° C. and treated with methyl iodide (0.40 ml, 6.48 mmol). The reaction was warmed to 0° C. and stirred for 1.5 hours. The reaction mixture was then partitioned between methylene chloride and saturated sodium bicarbonate. The organic fraction was dried over sodium sulfate, and the solvents were removed in vacuo. The desired title intermediate was further purified by high performance liquid chromatography to yield 687 mg (73%) as a clear oil.
