Concentrated under vacuum, diluted with water and cooled to 0° C. Acidified to pH3 with 4N HCl. Solids were collected by filtration, dissolved in toluene-EtOAc (ca. 2 L) and washed with brine. Dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated under vacuum. Brown solid was triturated with ether, collected by filtration, and dried under vacuum to give the title compound as a nearly white solid (5.07 g, 70%).
