After cooling to room temperature, the light yellow solution was diluted with ethyl acetate (200 mL), washed with 1.0 M hydrochloric acid (2×50 mL), water (100 mL), dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated to provide a light brown solid. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel eluting with 40-50% ethyl acetate in hexane to yield (±)-trans-3-(5,6-dihydro-4H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-1-yl)-4-(3-methoxyphenyl)pyrrolidine-2,5-dione as a light yellow solid.
