After refluxing time of 16 h the yellow residue was evaporated. Next it was purified by column chromatography (selleck screening library chloroform:methanol 9.5:0.5 vol). The combined fractions were condensed to dryness to give 1.50 g (73 %) of (10), m.p. 223–225 °C. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ (ppm): 7.60 (d, 2H, CHarom., J = 2.7 Hz), 7.59–7.58 (m, 2H, CHarom.), 7.52 (d, 2H, CHarom., J = 2.1 Hz), 7.51–7.49 (m, 2H, CHarom.), 7.45 (d, 2H, CHarom., J = 2.1 Hz), 7.44–7.40 (m, 4H, CHarom.). 13C NMR (CDCl3) δ (ppm): 190.91, 165.89, 165.73, 149.69, 141.97, 139.37,
