The reaction mixture was stirred (magnetic stirring) and heated at reflux (oil bath) under a nitrogen atmosphere. After 5 minutes of heating the reaction mixture became cloudy. Thin layer chromatography (TLC) (silica gel, acetone/ethyl acetate 95:5) showed 50% of the starting material remaining after 5 hours. Additional triethylamine (2 ml) and benzyl bromide (1.5 ml) were added, and the mixture was heated at reflux for 4 hours. TLC still showed starting material present. Additional reagents were added (1.5 ml benzyl bromide and 2 ml triethylamine) and heating was continued for 14 hours. The triethylamine hydrobromide was removed by filtration, and the filter cake was washed with acetone (3×10 ml). The filtrate and washings were evaporated to give 17.6 g of a semi-solid residue. The residue was triturated with water (30 ml), and the product extracted with methylene chloride (4×15 ml) and dried (sodium sulfate). Evaporation of the solvent yielded 4.99 g of a light-brown oil which was triturated with hexanes (20 ml) to crystallize the product. The cream-colored solid was separated and washed with hexanes (3×10 ml) to give 3.351 g (53% yield) of the product. Estimated purity by TLC was 98% (hexanes/acetone 5:1).
