The reaction is then heated to an internal temperature of 35° C. for 35 min. After cooling to RT, the reaction is saturated with NaCl (approx. 250 g) and extracted with CH2Cl2 (6×150 mL). The combined CH2Cl2 extracts are dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to give the title compound as a brown oil. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 4.43 (1H, s), 4.34 (2H, q, J 7.2), 2.30 (2H, bs), 1.35 (3H, t, J 7.2).
