TLC (90/10, hexane/EtOAc) indicated the reaction to be complete. The catalyst was filtered off through a celite pad and the filtrate concentrated down to afford 96 mg crude product as an oil. Purification by flash chromatography (90/10, hexane/EtOAc) afforded 75 mg white solids mp 58°-60° C. (78%).
