The reaction mixture is cooled to room temperature, and the solvent evaporated in vacuo to give a beige solid. The crude product is taken up in a 1:1 mixture of hexane:ether (the insoluble material is discarded), and then concentrated under reduced pressure to give an orange oil which is further purified by column chromatography on silica gel to give 6-(ethylthio)hept-3-en-2-one as a yellow oil.
