After completion (TLC), the solvent was evaporated and the residue was basified with 10% NaOH solution and washed with CH2Cl2 (2×50 mL). The aqueous layer was then acidified with 1 N HCl and extracted with EtOAc (4×100 mL). The combined organic layer was washed with water (100 mL), brine (100 mL), dried and filtered. After removal of solvent, the desired compound was obtained (4.5 g, 95%) as an off white solid.
