The mixture was filtered to remove inorganic material and the filtrate evaporated down under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel using dichloromethane as the eluent and recrystallisation from hexane to give the pure (GC: 100%) desired product (0.15 g 23%).
