The mixture was heated to reflux. After 1 h additional methanol (14.1 mL) was added. After a further 30 min additional methanol (14.1 mL) was added. After a further 30 min the mixture was cooled in an ice bath and treated with methanol (100 mL) followed (cautiously) with water (1000 mL). The mixture was stirred for 1 h and then extracted with dichloromethane (1,500 mL total). The combined organics were washed with water, then brine, dried and concentrated to dryness to afford 49.84 g of the title compound. LC-MS m/z 305 (M+H)+, 1.79 min (ret time).
