Methanolic sodium methoxide (416 mL of 25% w/w, 1.82 mol) was added in portions over 10 minutes. The mixture was stirred at reflux for 18 hours, cooled to room temperature, concentrated, diluted with cold water, and acidified with 36% HCl solution. The resulting precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with cold water, and dried over phosphorous pentoxide (0.1 mm) to provide the the title compound as a tan colored solid (80.9 g, 97.5% yield).
