The reaction mixture was then stirred at rt overnight, before being concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was partitioned between water and dichloromethane. The organic layer was separated, washed with water and brine, dried over sodium sulfate and then concentrated. The crude product was further purified by column chromatography. Yield: 3.5 g.
