Acetic acid (0.16 ml) was added and the solution evaporated to dryness. The residue was suspended in water and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×50 ml). The combined ethyl acetate extracts were washed with water, dried (magnesium sulphate) and evaporated under reduced pressure. Chromatography on silica gel (eluted with chloroform-ethanol, 100:1) gave the title compound (310 mg, 69%). 1R: υmax (KBr) 3397, 3208, 1640, 1616, 1581, 1480, 1390 cm-1. 1H NMR: δH [(CD3)2SO] 1.32(3H,s,CH3), 1.35(3H,s,CH3), 2.00(1H,m,CH), 3.77(2H,dd, J=11.8, 6.1 Hz, 2×H(ax), 3.9 (3H,s,OCH3), 3.99 (2H,dd,J=11.8, 4.1 Hz, 2×H(eq)), 4.36(2H,d, J=6.8 Hz, CH2ON), 6.60(2H,br.s, D2O exchangeable, NH2), 8.14(1H,s,H-8).
