The catalyst was filtered, and the solvent evaporated. The residue was dissolved in THF (1 ml), and treated with tetrabutyl ammonium fluoride (2 ml of a 1N solution in THF) for 2 hr. The reaction was diluted with water and extracted with diethyl ether. The organic extracts were washed with water, dried, evaporated, and the volatile organics removed by vacuum to give the title compound as an oil (300 mg, 64%). MS (ESI) 223.2 (M+H)+.
