The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hr, poured into water and extracted with ether. The ether extracts were washed three times with water, dried (sodium sulfate) and concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification by flash chromatography, eluting with 2:1 hexanes/ether, provided the title compound as an oil (120 mg, 76%).
