The phases are separated and the aqueous phase is extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phase and ethyl acetate extract are combined, washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to obtain a residue. Flash column chromatography of the residue using silica gel and a 3:20 methylene chloride/hexanes solution gives the title product as an oil (0.274 g, 63% yield) which is identified by NMR spectral analyses.
