The reaction was stirred at 0° C. for 3 hr and then poured into water (200 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×300 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with water, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, evaporation of the solvent, and purification by silica column chromatography (20% ethyl acetate—hexanes) yielded 5.33 g (100%) of the title compound as a tan solid. The title compound was further purified by reverse phase HPLC to yield a white solid: mp 208-210° C.; 1H NMR (DMSO-d6): δ 6.89 (2H, d, J=8.47 Hz), 7.28 (1H, d, J=8.80 Hz), 7.63 (2H, d, J=8.50 Hz), 7.85 (2H, d, J=8.84 Hz), 8.02-8.06 (2H, m), 9.60 (1H, s), 10.54 (1H, s); MS (ESI) m/z 313/315 (M−H)−.
