Procedure
A solution of the compound obtained in Step B (15.2 g, 57.3 mmol) in toluene (550 mL) is heated at 80° C. in the presence of (1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-2-imidazolidinylidene)-dichloro(phenylmethylene)(tricyclohexylphosphine)ruthenium (Grubbs' catalyst, 2nd generation) (150 mg, 0.18 mmol) for 1 hour. 2,3-Dichloro-5,6-dicyano-p-benzoquinone (16.1 g, 70.9 mmol) is then added in one portion, and the solution is heated at 80° C. for 24 hours. The solution is filtered over Celite, and the filtrate is concentrated in vacuo. The product is purified by chromatography over silica gel using ethyl acetate and heptane as eluants to obtain the expected compound in the form of a solid.
