The reaction mixture is stirred at 0° C. for 20 minutes, treated with water (2 mL), and concentrated in vacuo to obtain a residue. A solution of the residue in ethyl acetate is washed sequentially with water and brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo to give the title product as a colorless gum (224 mg, 100%) which is found to have a 9:1 [R,S and S,R] to [R,R and S,S] ratio by NMR spectral analyses.
