The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 15 minutes, then 5.42 g of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethyl-aminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC·HCl, 28.3 mmole) was added and the mixture stirred overnight. The solution was worked up by adding 100 mL methylene chloride and the mixture extracted with 3×50 ml of 5% sodium bicarbonate and washed with 2×50 mL of brine. The organic layer was dried over MgSO4, filtered, and the solvent removed under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel eluted with methylene chloride/ethyl acetate (95/5).
