Then the mixture is heated to 70° C. for 3 hours. Then the reaction mixture is poured into water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases are dried over sodium sulphate, evaporated down i. vac., the residue is applied to silica gel and purified by chromatography on silica gel (eluant: petroleum ether/ethyl acetate 9:1).
