Then the reaction mixture was allowed to warm up to r.t. and stirred for 4 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to −60° C. and treated with 1.16 g (0.00991 mol) ethyl N,N-dimethylcarbamate in 5 mL of ether. Then the reaction mixture was allowed to warm up to r.t. and was stirred overnight. Resulting mixture was treated with 50 mL of 10% aqueous NH4Cl. The violet precipitate was separated, washed twice with water and dried. Yield 1.04 g (42%).
