After stirring for an additional 15 minutes at this temperature, triethylsilylchloride (16.7 mL, 0.1 mol) was added over 10 minutes followed by the addition of triethylsilyl-2-(triethylsiloxy)acetate (37.6 g, 0.1 mol) over 30 minutes. The reaction was stirred at −78° C. for 30 minutes and warmed to ambient temperature by removing the cryogenic bath and the THF solvent was removed by vacuum rotary evaporation at 40° C. to precipitate the lithium chloride. The mixture was taken up in 300 mL of hexanes and 5 mL of triethylamine and stirred for 5 minutes and the salt was allowed to settle. The supernatant was twice filtered through a pad of diatomaceous earth to give a clear solution. The solution was concentrated under rotary evaporation to give the lightly yellow colored oil product as a 1:1 mixture of geometrical isomers.
