The solution was stirred for 4 h. at room temperature undre nitrogen whereupon water (400 ml) and ethyl acetate (3×100 ml) were added and the combined organic phase was washed with water (200 ml), saturated brine (200 ml), dried (MgSO4) and the solvent removed in vacuo. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel (eluting with 5% ethyl acetate in hexane) to give the title compound as a yellow oil 1H NMR (250 MHz, CDCl3) δ4.60 (2H, dt, J 5, 1.6 Hz), 5.33 (1H, dq, J 10.5, 1.4 Hz), 5.48 (1H, dq, J 17.3, 1.6 Hz), 6.04 (1H, m), 6.86 (1H, d, J 9 Hz, 7.13 (1H, dd, J 8.4, 2.7 Hz), and 7.45 (1H, d, J 2.8 Hz).
