“…After 12 h, THF was removed in vacuo, brine (100 mL) was added and extracted with ether (3 × 100 mL). The dried (MgSO 4 ) extract was concentrated in vacuo , purified by chromatography over silica gel, eluting with 1–20% EtOAc/hexanes to give 33 21a (2.43 g, 12.23 mmol, 96% over 3 steps) as a colorless oil.
