After cooling, the reaction mixture was poured into cold aqueous sodium thiosulfate solution and extracted with ether. The ethereal extract was washed with water, dried and filtered. Evaporation of the filtrate left a residue which was purified by flash chromatography on a silica gel column. Elution of the column with Hexane:ether (50:1, v:v) provided the title compound (1.85 g, 5.34 mmol, 76% for two steps) as a colorless oil.
