The reaction is cooled to room temperature and poured into a saturated sodium bicarbonate solution. The organic portion is separated and concentrated in vacuo to an orange oil. The oil is chromatographed on silica gel eluting with a gradient of 20-50% ethyl acetate in hexane. The appropriate fractions are concentrated to leave a pale yellow solid. The solid is recrystallized from ethanol to give two crops of the desired product, 14.99 g (49% yield); mp 97°-100° C.
