The solution was heated at reflux for b 1 h under a gentle nitrogen sweep, during which time the solution became homogenous. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, then the residue was distilled under high vacuum. The fraction distilling at 152-156° C. (5 mm Hg; lit.10 bp 183-185° C., 12-13 mm Hg) was collected, which rapidly solidified as a pink solid. Recrystallization from 200 mL hexane/CH2Cl2 afforded the desired product as white needles (36.4 g, 85.5%); mp 58° C.; 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 3.99 (s, 3 H), 6.88 (d, 1 H, J=8.7 Hz), 8.13 (dd, 1 H, J=8.7, 2.4 Hz), 8.52 (d, 1 H, J=2.4 Hz); EI-MS m/z 296 (M+, 42), 261 (100).
