The reaction was continued for 2 hours, with gradual warming to 15° C. Water and acetic acid were removed under reduced pressure (azeotroped with toluene). The crude product was partitioned between ethyl acetate and saturated aqueous potassium hydrogen carbonate solution. The layers were separated. The ethyl acetate layer was washed with saturated aqueous potassium hydrogen carbonate solution and brine, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated to yield 21.4 g of the title A compound as a light yellow oil.
