-78 °C

Procedure

To a stirring -78° C. solution, under argon, of 556 ml of 1M allylmagnesium bromide is added, dropwise over 20 minutes, a solution of 36.4 g of product from Example 330 in 17 ml of tetrahydrofuran. The reaction mixture is stirred at -78° C. for 2 hours. Thin layer chromatography indicates the presence of starting material. An additional 280 ml of 1M allylmagnesium bromide is added and the reaction is stirred overnight at -78° C. The reaction is quenched with dropwise addition of saturated ammonium chloride, filtered through diatomaceous earth and washed with diethyl ether, ethyl acetate and 20% isopropyl alcohol/chloroform. The combined extracts are washed with saturated sodiumchloride, dried and concentrated in vacuo to give, after Kugelrohr distillation at 85° C., 38.25 g of the desired product.
