After stirring at 75°-80° C. for 0.3 h, the mixture was cooled to RT, ethyl acetate (20 mL) was added and the organic layer was washed twice with 10% NaOH. The organic extract was dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (silica gel, 20% ether/hexanes) to provide the title compound as a colorless solid (0.09 g, 53%). mp 34°-35° C.
