mL) were added by using a syringe. The septum was then replaced
by a screw-cap containing a Teflon-coated septum, and the reaction
vessel was placed under microwave irradiation at 135 °C. After stir-
ring at this temperature for 30–60 min, the heterogeneous mixture
was cooled to r.t. The resulting solution was filtered through a pad
of silica gel then washed with EtOAc (20 mL) and concentrated to
give the crude material, which was then purified by column chroma-
tography (SiO2, hexane) to yield 5.
