The volatiles were removed by evaporation under reduced pressure and the residue obtained was chromatographed on silica gel eluting with a gradient of 5-15 percent ethyl acetate in hexane. The product fractions were concentrated by evaporation under reduced pressure to obtain 3.4 g (37 percent of theory) of the title compound as a dark low-melting solid.
