added and the resulting reaction mixture was stirred at the
indicated temperature until the disappearance of either of
the starting materials. Upon completion, the mixture was
then quenched with a solution of 2M HCl (25 mL) or with
saturated NH4Cl solution (in case of amino compounds) and
was stirred vigorously until layers turned clear. The solution
was then extracted with CH2Cl2 or EtOAc (3ꢂ25 mL), dried
over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated under vacuum. Pu-
rification of the resulting oil or solid by flash chromatogra-
phy over silica with pentane, petroleum ether/diethyl ether
(or ethyl acetate) mixtures afforded the pure compounds.
