98. Microwave experiments were conducted by using a Discover microwave reactor from CEM. All experiments were performed in sealed tubes under an argon atmosphere. Microwave irradiation of 300W was used, the temperature was ramped from room temperature to 150°C in 1 minute. Once this temperature was reached, the reaction mixture was held at 150°C for the indicated time. For recent reviews, see: a) C. O. Kappe, Angew. Chem. 2004, 116, 6408-6443;
