The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated, then partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic extract was washed twice with water, brine, dried and concentrated, then purified via silica gel chromatography eluting with 50% ethyl acetate: hexane to give 10.58 g (89%) of the desired product.
