The reaction mixture was decomposed with excess dry ice while immersing the flask into a water bath at room temperature. It was then isolated on a silica gel plate using ether, which elutes the propargyl alcohol to the top of the plate (the plate was developed several times), followed by CHCl3 -acetone 1:1 which elutes the product. This procedure gives 33 mg (31%) of the title compound, having a melting point of 77°-80° C. (decomposition) and providing the following analysis:
