51. Note that several other groups have also reported low-to-moderate yields for similar coupling reactions, see references. [27], [31] and [52].
52. When the cyclisation was performed by heating at reflux in AcOH/ HCl, we always observed the presence of an impurity with a strong yellow emission under a UV lamp (365 nm), which, despite several attempts, could not be separated from 2.
