After cooling to room temperature water was added and the solution was made slightly basic with aqueous 1N sodium hydroxide. The solution was extracted three times with dichloromethane and the combined organic layers were dried over sodium sulphate, filtered and evaporated in vacuo, yielding the title compound (0.86 g, 72% yield).
