These solids were suspended in isopropanol (68 ml) and allowed to stir for five minutes. To this stirring solution was added potassium carbonate (6.18 g, 44.8 mmol, 3 eq.) dissolved in H2O (12 ml). The resulting solution was heated to 80° C. for 16 hours, at which time the reaction was deemed complete by LC/MS. The reaction mixture was filtered through a small bed of Celite® and the filtrate was concentrated to dryness. The resulting solids were dissolved in isopropyl acetate (100 ml) and washed with water (3×50 ml). The organics were cooled to 0° C., and to this stirring mixture was added slowly 6N HCl until solids crashed out of solution. The solids were filtered and dried for 16 hours at 50° C. in a vacuum oven to afford 2.89 g of compound 2 (72%) in >98% HPLC purity. MH+=300, 302 (about 3:1). Palladium: 4 ppm
