After stirring for 10 h at rt, the resulting mixture was quenched with water and the product portion was extracted with Et2O. The combined extracts were dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by SiO2 chromatography (gradient: 40% EtOAc/hexane to 90% EtOAc/hexane) to provide the titled compound (275 mg, 59%).
