The reaction mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 6 hours, then poured into H2O (200 mL) and extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×300 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by flash column chromatography on silica, eluting with a gradient of hexane—20% to 40% EtOAc to yield the titled product.
