The mixture was cooled, concentrated in vacuo, acidified with 2M HCl and extracted with ethyl acetate (×3). The organics were washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), and concentrated to give a yellow oil. Purified using biotage chromatography (C18 cartridge, CH3CN/H2O) to give the title compound as a white solid. 1.9 g.
