Procedure

The product obtained in Step 1 above (13.2 g, 39.7 mmol) was added to sodium ethoxide in EtOH [prepared from Na (10.5 g, 457 mmol) and EtOH (200 mL)]. The resulting mixture was heated at 70° C. overnight. After cooling to ambient temperature, the reaction mixture was diluted with ice water (0.8 L) and extracted with EtOAc (×4). The combined organic phases were washed twice with brine, dried (MgSO4) and concentrated. The resulting dark red oil was purified by column chromatography on silica using toluene/Et3N (95:5), followed by (90:10), as eluent to give 3.0 g (41%) of the title product as a red oil. HRMS m/z calcd for C9H13NO3 (M)+183.0896. Found: 183.0895.
