After 1 at −78° C. the reaction was allowed to warm to rt and stirred for 12 h. The reaction was cooled in an ice-water bath and the reaction quenched with 20 mL of water. The aqueous phase was extracted with CH2Cl2:EtOAc (4:1 v/v), dried (Na2SO4), filtered and evaporated. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography and eluted with a CH2Cl2:EtOAc gradient (100:1→100:4) to yield 5b (2.0 g; 71%): m.s. 209.2 (M+H)+.
