The reaction mixture was stirred at −78° C. for 1 h then was warmed to 25° C. and stirred for 1 h. The reaction mixture was quenched with 1 N HCl solution and extracted with EtOAc. The combined EtOAc extracts were washed with brine and dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was washed with n-hexane to afford the title compound as a solid (3.0 g, 40%): mp 196-198° C.; 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 13.32 (br s, 1H), 10.05 (s, 1H), 7.98 (m, 1H), 7.84 (m, 2H), 2.61 (s, 3H); ESIMS m/z 163.00 ([M−H]−).
