To the mixture was added dropwise at room temperature over 4.5 h a solution of ethyl diazoacetate (3.1 ml, 2.84 g, 25 mmol) in dichloromethane (15 ml). The mixture was filtered, concentrated in vacuo, and the residue purified by silica column (100 g) chromatography, eluting with 2:1 hexane/dichloromethane then dichloromethane. Product-containing fractions were combined and concentrated in vacuo, then purified further by preparative HPLC (Condition 1). Combination and evaporation of appropriate fractions gave the title compound as a colourless oil (0.5 g, 11%).
