The mixture is stirred at RT overnight and concentrated. The mixture is partitioned between 0.1 M HCl (100 mL) and EtOAc (100 mL). The aqueous layer is extracted with EtOAC. The combined organic layers is MgSO4 dried, concentrated, and chromatographed (10% EtOAc/Hex) to give the title compound (4.37 g, 72%).
