To this was added a premixed solution of cis-2,6-dimethylmorpholine (17.4 mL, 142 mmol) and lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (1M in THF, 156 mL, 156 mmol) (which was stirred for 45 minutes at −78° C., before the addition was made) and stirring continued for 1 h at −78° C. It was brought to room temperature and stirring continued for additional 12 hours. Solvents were evaporated and the residue dissolved in ethyl acetate, which was washed with 1N HCl, water and brine. The organic layer was dried and concentrated to give the title compound as semi-solid. Yield: 27.5 g, (72%).
