The reaction was quenched by cautious, dropwise addition of water, then acidified with 1N hydrochloric acid. The volatiles were evaporated and the residue taken up in water and extracted with ethyl ether, washing the extracts with brine. After drying over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and evaporation of solvent 1.674 g of oil was obtained. This crude product was dissolved in a small amount of methylene chloride and purified by column chromatography on silica gel to afford 1.40 g of product which was used as starting material in the procedure of Example 5.
