Reaction Steps

A stirred mixture of the product from Step 1 (1.05 g, 0.00628 mol), stannous chloride dihydrate (7.09 g, 0.03141 mol) and absolute EtOH (13.9 ml), under nitrogen, was warmed to 80° C. during 30 minutes and kept at that temperature for an additional 30 minutes. The mixture was cooled and kept at ambient temperature for 1 hour. It was then poured onto ice (200 ml), treated slowly with solid NaHCO3 (2.88 g) and adjusted to pH 8 with saturated NaHCO3. This mixture was extracted with EtOAc; the extract was washed with water, dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated to give the titled product (0.738 g), a dark oil.
