The reaction was monitored by GC/MS for disappearance of the starting material and found to be complete. The solution was filtered, extracted with hexane (30 ml), and filtered through a short silica column (20 g). The hexane solution was evaporated in vacuo to afford an oil. This crystallized on cooling to room temperature to afford 3.99 g (95% yield) of product. MS: m/e 164 (M+).
