45. 2O quench of the reaction mixture of 1a and n-BuLi, deuterium introduction at difluoromethinic position of 2aa was observed.
46. Reaction of 1a with an equimolar amount of n-BuLi gave 2aa in 38% yield with the recovery of 1a in 41%.
47. 2O gave 3a without significant decrease in the product yield. This finding strongly indicates that intermediate E is stable at least at room temperature.
