The suspension was stirred at reflux for 4 hours. The solvent was evaporated and the crude was partitioned between water and Et2O. The organic phase was dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated. The crude was purified by flash chromatography with ethyl acetate-petroleum ether (2-8) to give 300 mg of the title compound (47% yield).
