The mixture is stirred for 15 minutes under cooling for 10 minutes at room temperature, then the solution of 0.83 g (9.3 mmol) paraformaldehyde in 9.2 ml iso-propanol is added and the reaction mixture is heated at reflux temperature for 4 hours. After cooling, 15 ml of water is added and the mixture is extracted with 3×20 ml dichloromethane, dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated in vacuum. The residue is crystallized in hexane to obtain 2.11 g title compound. Mp: 160-162° C.
