LC/MS showed no starting material. The reaction was quenched via addition of a saturated solution of sodium bicarbonate and was extracted with DCM. The organic layer was washed with water (3×), dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified via silica gel chromatography eluting with a gradient of 0 to 50% EtOAc in hexanes to afford the title compound (178 mg, 25%). LC/MS: Rt=1.24 min, ES+ 264 (AA standard).
