The reaction mixture was heated to 70° C. and stirred for 14 hours. After cooling to RT, the reaction mixture was quenched with 1 M HCl until pH<7. The layers were separated and the organic layer was washed with saturated NaHCO3, water, brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. Purification via silica gel chromatography (6:1 hexanes:EtOAc) afforded 7.53 g of a mixture of compound A and residual cyclopentanecarbonitrile. Because these two compounds were not easily separable by chromatography, this mixture was carried directly to the next step.
