The mixture was heated at 130°-140° C. for twenty hours. The reaction mixture was then cooled to room temperature, quenched with water, and extracted with an ether/ethyl acetate solution. Evaporation of solvents resulted in a crude oil which was purified by HPLC using 2:1 hexane/ethyl acetate as the eluent. A solid resulted which was recrystallized from isopropanol to yield 4 g of crystalline solid with a melting point of 216°-218° C.
