The reaction mixture was heated to 80° C. where it became homogenous. After 2 hours the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, diluted with ethyl acetate, and a 10% citric acid solution. A precipitate formed which was filtered off, washed with water and dried to 0.71 g, 2.9 mmol, 88% yield.
