The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and the toluene was removed under reduced pressure. Saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution (800 mL) was added, and the resulting slurry was stirred at room temperature for 15 minutes, and then filtered and dried under vacuum to give the title compound (121.8 g) as a solid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6): δ=8.12 (d, 2H), 7.59 (d 2H), 5.78 (s, 1H), 3.8-4.0 (m, 4H).
