The mixture was stirred for 20 min, during which the magnesium was consumed. The resulting solution was poured over cold aqueous HCl, basified to pH 8 with NaHCO3, extracted with ethyl acetate, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated. Silica gel chromatography using 10% ethyl acetate in hexane provided a mixture of the desired compound and methyl 3-(2-isopropyl-4-thiazolinyl)propanoate.
