At temperatures below 0° C., however, the reaction can be sluggish. A temperature of 3-5° C. seems to be optimal). The mixture was left stirring for another 60 minutes at 3-5° C., and then allowed to approach ambient temperature. Analysis by TLC (25% EtOAc in hexane) indicated complete conversion of the starting material within 1-2 hr. When the reaction was complete, the mixture was poured into ˜3 liters of crushed ice, and the resulting yellow solid was filtered off, washed with water and then suction-dried. Yield ˜53 g (84%), used without further purification.
