After that the solvent was evaporated off under reduced pressure, the resulting residue was partitioned between a NaCl saturated solution (50 ml) and chloroform (50 ml) and the aqueous phase was extracted with chloroform (3×50 ml). After drying and evaporating off the solvent under reduced pressure, a crude was obtained which was purified by chromatography through a silica gel column, eluting with n-hexane:ethyl acetate, 70:30, thereby obtaining 2.847 g of the title compound (87% yield).
