The suspension was stirred at reflux for 16 h. After cooling, the solution was filtered through a pad of Celite® and washed with ethanol. After evaporation of the solvent, the aqueous layer was extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous MgSO4 and evaporated. The resulting solid was purified by column chromatography eluting with ethyl acetate:hexanes 1:3 v/v to afford 70 mg (4%) of the title compound (LCMS RT=6.12 min, MH+ 223.1)
