The reaction vial was heated to 110° C. for 3 h. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc and filtered through a Celite pad. The solution was washed with H2O and brine, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (EtOAc/hexanes=1:5) to afford the desired product (2.8 g, 63%).
