After stirring at 50° C. for 1 hour the reaction was diluted into ether and washed successively with H2O and saturated NaCl. Drying over MgSO4 and evaporation gave 1.1 g of a red solid which was purified by flash chromatography through 100 g of silica gel (20% methylene chloride:hexane) yielding 650 mg (68%) of the title compound as a pale orange solid.
