The reaction mixture was poured in water (25 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×25 ml). The combined extract was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The product was purified by flash chromatography over silica gel eluting with ethyl acetate to yield the desired product. 315 mg; 92% PRO-04-45
