After 45 minutes, the mixture was diluted with dichloromethane (11) and stirred for a further 18 hours. The mixture was then concentrated under reduced pressure and partitioned between methanol and 2N aqueous sodium hydroxide and stirred for 2 hours. The methanol was then removed under reduced pressure and the yellow solid isolated by filtration, washing sequentially with water, acetone and diethyl ether to afford the subtitle compound as a yellow solid (18.0 g, 54%). A further quantity of product was obtained by concentration of the filtrate, acidification with concentrated hydrochloric acid (95 ml), warning on a steam bath for 5 minutes, cooling and neutralisation with solid potassium carbonate. The solid obtained was isolated by filtration, washing sequentially with water, ethanol and diethyl ether to afford the subtitle compound as a yellow solid (12.11 g, 93% combined yield). Rf 0.23 (0.880 aqueous ammonia:methanol:dichloromethane 2:14:84, v/v). MS m/z 298 (MH)+.
