The mixture is stirred under argon for 2.5 hrs at reflux. After cooling to rt the mixture is diluted with EtOAc, washed with 0.5 N aqueous hydrochloric acid and brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and the solvents are evaporated. The residue is purified by chromatography on silica gel (flashmaster, DCM to DCM/methanol 9/1) followed by crystallization from DCM/diethyl ether/hexane to give the title compound as off-white crystals.
