The mixture was cooled, and filtered and the filtrate evaporated to dryness to give the crude product as an oil (24.0 g). This material was combined with a similar crude product (6.94 g) from an identical reaction run on a smaller scale and purified by chromatography on silica (900 g) using an ether hexane mixture (1:30) as eluant to give the title compound (13.5 g) as an oil.
