After 5 minutes a solution of the intermediate from step A (380 mg, 1.75 mmol) in THF (3 mL) was added. The reaction was gradually warmed to room temperature over 30 minutes and quenched with saturated NH4Cl solution. The resulting bi-phasic mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with saturated NaCl solution, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash chromatography using 15% ethyl acetate-hexanes to afford the product as a light yellow solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz): 9.63 (s, J=2.1 Hz, 1H), 8.96 (d, J=1.6 Hz, 1H), 8.24 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 1H), 8.07 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 1H), 7.94 (t, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.73 (t, J=7.8 Hz, 1H), 7.64 (d, J=1.8 Hz, 2H), 7.55 (t, J=2.0 Hz, 1H). LC-MS: 3.99 min; (M+H)=326.0.
