The reaction mixture was diluted with water (200 ml) and extracted with dichloromethane (2×200 ml). The organics were combined, washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate and then concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (SiO2) eluting with diethylether/dichloromethane (1:4) to afford the title compound as an off white solid (4.74 g, 28% yield). HPLC retention time 5.32 min. Mass spectrum (ES+) m/z 228 (M+H).
