The reaction mixture was then cooled, acidified with acetic acid (10 mL), and concentrated by evaporation under reduced pressure. The residue obtained was dissolved in dichloromethane and the resulting solution was washed well with water, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated by evaporation under reduced pressure. The residue obtained was mixed with hexane and filtered to recover the solids. The solids were dried to obtain 4.7 g (97 percent of theory) of the title compound as a tan powder melting at 85°-87° C.
