After 16 h, the reaction mixture was poured on crashed ice/NH4Cl, extracted twice with ethyl acetate, the combined organic phases washed with water and a sat. solution of NaCl, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated by evaporation under reduced pressure. The crude material was purified with silica column chromatography eluting with hexane/ethyl acetate (95:5) to yield 0.51 g (75%) of the title compound as a colorless oil. MS (ISP): 289.3 [M+H]+.
