Procedure

To a solution of ethyl (1RS)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-1-hydroxy-3-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)indene-2-carboxylate (45 mg, 0.11 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (3 ml) at 0° C. was added triethylsilane (38 μl, 0.24 mmol), followed by boron trifluoride etherate (121 μl, 0.98 mmol). The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 15 min, at which time was added slowly 3M HCl. The mixture was extracted with EtOAc. The organic extract was washed successively with H2O, 5% aqueous NaHCO3 and saturated aqueous NaCl. The solvent was removed in vacuao to provide the title compound (40 mg, 90%) as a mixture of Δ1 and Δ2 double bond isomers.
