After 1 h, a solution of 2-[2-(3-butyl-5-methyl-isoxazol-4-yl)-ethyl]-4-methyl-thiazole-5-carboxylic acid (100 mg, 0.32 mmol) in dioxane (4 mL) was added and the reaction mixture heated at 90° C. overnight. The reaction mixture was then cooled, quenched with ice water and extracted with dichloromethane. The combined extracts were washed with Seignette's salt solution then dried, filtered, and concentrated. Purification by chromatography (silica, 0 to 5% methanol in dichloromethane) gave the title compound (50 mg, 44%) as a light yellow oil. MS: m/e=350.5 [M+H]+.
