More isopropanol (30 mL) and H2O (35 mL) were added and the resulting suspension was stirred for 24 hours and then poured onto ice/H2O (200 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (2×200 mL). The organic layers were combined and dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to provide a crude oil which was purified by flash column chromatography (10 to 60% EtOAc/heptane) to provide 2.27 g (57 yield over two steps) of the title compound as an oil.
