The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. and sodium sulfate decahydrate was added portion-wise. The resultant thick emulsion was diluted with THF and filtered through a pad of Celite. The filtrate was concentrated to a clear oil. Purification of the crude material by column chromatography, eluting with 1-5% MeOH/dichloromethane, afforded (S)-1-(2,4-dimethoxybenzyl)-4-isopropylimidazolidin-2-one as a colorless solid (0.329 g, 63%). LCMS (APCI+) m/z 279 [M+H]+.
