The brown reaction mixture was stirred at −78° C. for 15 min then acetone (2.12 mL, 28.94 mmol) was added dropwise. The color turned yellow at the end of addition. The reaction mixture was stirred at −78° C. for 30 min then quenched with water. The ice bath was removed to let the reaction warmed up to room temperature. The reaction was worked up with water and ethyl acetate. The organic layers were washed with brine and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solids were filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated to give a yellow residue. Purification of the crude residue by flash chromatography (120 g of silica gel, eluting with 100% ethyl acetate, 2-5% methanol in ethyl acetate) to give the title compound (702 mg, 49%). HR-MS (ES, m/z) calculated for C28H31N2O2Cl2 [(M+H)+] 497.1757, observed 497.1758.
