The resulting mixture was stirred for 4 h at 90° C. After cooling, ethyl acetate was added and the solution was passed through a pad of Celite®. The organic layer was then washed with brine, dried over anhydrous MgSO4 and evaporated to afford 190 mg (94%) of the title compound (LCMS RT=6.54 min, MH+ 290.9)
