The reaction mixture was heated at reflux for 1 h and then quenched with water. The aqueous layer was basified with aqueous 1 M sodium hydroxide and extracted with three portions of ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. Flash-chromatography (aminopropyl-modified silica gel) gave the title compound (0.62 g, 62%) as a light yellow amorphous solid.
