The reaction mixture is admixed with 2 ml of 1N NaOH, stirred for 30 minutes and then partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic phase is washed with brine, dried over sodium sulphate and concentrated by evaporation. The title compound is obtained as a yellow oil from the residue by means of flash chromatography (SiO2 60F). Rf=0.48 (200:20:1 dichloromethane-methanol-25% conc. ammonia); Rt=4.97.
