The mixture was heated to 85° C., for 60 minutes, and then the contents were filtered through Celite® while still warm and rinsed with THF. The solution was concentrated and the crude material was triturated with Et2O to afford the title compound as a white solid. The mother liquors were re-purified by chromatography on silica gel (2% MeOH-DCM increasing to 5% MeOH) to provide additional title compound.
