The mixture was allowed to warm up at room temperature and stirred for 19 hours. After cooling at 0° C., diethanolamine hydrochloride (46.7 g, 0.33 mol, 1.1 eq.) dissolved in 100 mL of water was added over 10 min. and stirred for 8 hours. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to afford a clear yellow solid. After dilution with 300 mL of ethylacetate, the heterogeneous mixture was filtered over dicalite. The mixture was used directly in the next step.
