Stirring was continued for 1 hr at −78° C. Tri-n-butyl borate (177 ml, 0.655 mol) was added slowly at −78° C. The cooling bath was removed, the reaction mixture was allowed to warm to 0° C. and was quenched with 1.5 N hydrochloric acid at 0° C. The organic layer was separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethylacetate and the combined organic layers were washed with brine and concentrated. The residue obtained was stirred in petroleum ether for 30 min. The solid obtained was filtered and dried under vacuum. Yield: 65 g, 82%, as a white solid.
