The mixture was refluxed for 20 hours and then cooled to room temperature. The mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was purified by flash chromatography (ethyl acetate), giving a pale yellow solid (1.138 g, 85%). 400 MHz 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ: 8.39 (d, J=4.7 Hz, 1H), 7.62 (d, J=12.5 Hz, 1H), 7.45-7.40 (m, 2H), 7.31 (dd, J=11.3, 8.2 Hz, 1H), 7.20 (ddd, J=8.2, 4.3, 2.0 Hz, 1H), 5.10 (d, J=12.5 Hz, 1H), 3.87 (s, 3H), 3.06 (br. s, 3H), 2.49 (br. s, 3H). LCMS: 346 [M+H].
