The reaction mixture is partitioned between EtOAc (30 mL) and water (30 mL). The organic phase is washed with brine (30 mL), dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to a residue. The residue is purified by flash chromatography to afford the title compound as syrup (380 mg, 73%). LC-ES/MS m/e 287.0 (M+1).
