The vessel was placed into a sand-bath at the initial temperature of 120° C. Once the vessel was secured, the temperature of the bath was raised to 235° C. in 15 min and kept at 235° C. for 1 h. The vessel was allowed to cool and the contents removed and powdered. The product was extracted with methanol for 18 h in a soxhlet. The resultant solution was concentrated in vacuo. Purification of the crude reaction mixture via column chromatography (1:5 ethyl acetate/hexane) yielded 7 (3.1 g, 78%) as a white solid.
