The reaction mixture was stirred at 22° C. for 72 h. Methanol and THF were stripped off in the rotary evaporator. While cooling in ice, the reaction mixture was adjusted to pH=4 with 2 molar hydrochloric acid and extracted twice with 50 ml of ethyl acetate each time. The combined organic phases were dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated.
