A solution of (Z)-3-hydroxy-2,3-diphenyl-propenal (105, 423 mg, 1.89 mmol), pTSA (30 mg, 7.56 mmol) and methyl urea (118 mg, 0.62 mmol) in toluene was heated at 110° C. overnight. The reaction was quenched with water, and the products were extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was separated and washed with brine, and dried over MgSO4, and concentrated in vacuo to produce a yellow oil. The crude product was dissolved in CH2Cl2 and titrated with diethyl ether to give the title compound as a white solid.
