The solution was placed under a nitrogen atmosphere and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (30 mg, 0.03 mmol) added. After refluxing for 3 h, the solvent was removed from the reaction mixture under reduced pressure. The residue was partitioned between H2O (50 ml) and EtOAc (50 ml) and the EtOAc layer washed with H2O (2×50 ml), and dried over MgSO4. Following removal of the solvent, the crude material was purified on silica gel, eluting with hexane/ether (1/1, v/v). This gave the subtitle compound as a colourless gum (252 mg, 100%). Rf 0.38 (hexanelether 1:1, v/v). MS m/z 306 and 308 (MNH4+).
