The reaction is cooled to room temperature, poured into water and extracted with EtOAc. The organic phase is dried over sodium sulphate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue is purified by column chromatography on silica eluting with hexane/EtOAc (1:1), followed by neat EtOAc, to give the title compound (0.275 g, 0.629 mmol) as a pale yellow solid. MS (m/z): 438 (M+1).
