At the end of this time, the mixture was cooled, and the butanol used as the solvent was removed by evaporation under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography through silica gel eluted with a 10:1 by volume mixture of chloroform and methanol, to give 112 mg of the title compound as a white powder melting at 167°-169° C. (with decomposition).
