The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 1 h, 2N HCl (10 mL) was added and the mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3×40 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with water (10 mL) and brine (20 mL), dried over Na2SO4, and filtered. The filtrate was evaporated in vacuo to give the title compound as a gum, which was used for the next step without additional purification. MS (ESI, pos. ion) m/e: 399 (M+l).
