The mixture was heated for 45 min. before cooling to ambient temperature and filtered through celite. Filtrate concentrated in vacuo to afford 60B (1.5 g, 95%) as an oil. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 1.25-1.41 (m, J=4.39 Hz, 3 H) 2.27 (s, 3 H) 2.61 (s, 2 H) 2.92 (s, 2 H) 4.22 (s, 2 H) 4.64 (s, 1 H) 6.84-7.56 (m, 12 H)
