The mixture was heated at 85° C. reflux under N2 for 3 hrs. The reaction was cooled to room temperature, and concentrated to dryness, which was diluted with H2O (50 mL), extracted with ethyl acetate (200 mL×3), The organic phase was washed with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 150 mL, dried over Na2SO4, After concentration, the crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography eluted with PE:EtOAc=10:1-4:1 to give afford title product (8.5 g, 73% yield) as yellow oil. LCMS (m/z) ES+=233 (M+1).
