After complete addition and an additional 5 min, the solvent was evaporated in vacuo and the residue was partitioned between ethyl acetate (200 mL) and 50% conc NH4OH (200 mL). The organic phase was separated and washed again with 50% conc NH4OH, followed by brine, then dried with MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to give 1.25 g (95%) of a light yellow solid.
