The mixture was stirred for 3 hours at 50° C. and then cooled to room temperature. 6 N hydrochloric acid was added with stirring and cooling until the solution had a pH of 5-6. The suspension was further cooled to 0-5° C., filtered, washed with water and dried to yield 2.4 g (92%) of the title compound as a solid melting at 103.5-105.5° C. Recrystallization from toluene raised the melting point to 105-106° C.
