Procedure

A mixture of 2-tert-butyl-pyran-4-one (Step 1.6) (5.74 g, 37.7 mmol) and a 30% aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide (100 mL) is stirred for 1 h at reflux, allowed to cool and concentrated. The residue is triturated with MeOH (200 mL) and filtered. The filtrate is concentrated and the residue purified by silica gel column chromatography (DCM/MeOH/NH3aq, 94:5:1→92:7:1) to afford 4.46 g of the title compound as a yellow solid: ESI-MS: 152.0 [M+H]+; tR=1.45 min (System 1); TLC: Rf=0.11 (DCM/MeOH, 9:1).
