The mixture is stirred for 2.5 hr at 20°-25°. The material is partitioned between aqueous sodium bicarbonate and ethyl acetate, the phases are separated, the organic phase is dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure with heat to give the title compound, mp 166°-170°; IR (mineral oil) 3311, 2964, 2954, 2925, 1658, 1614, 1505, 1404 and 1355 cm-1 ; NMR (CDCl3) 8.67, 6.73, 6.6-6.7, 3.78 and 1.42 δ; MS (FAB) m/z 210, 195 and 167.
