After this time, the reaction was cooled to room temperature and acidified to pH 1.5 with 2N hydrochloric acid. The resulting precipitate was collected by vacuum filtration, washed with water (2×10 mL) and dried overnight under vacuum to afford a 94% yield (768 mg) of 1e as a white solid: mp 183-184° C.; 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 12.66 (br s, 1H), 7.48 (s, 1H), 3.59 (m, 1H), 3.41 (m, 1H), 1.97-1.83 (m, 3H), 1.61 (dt, 1H, J=9.0, 2.5 Hz), 0.96 (dd, 2H, J=12.5, 3.5 Hz); MS (APCI−) m/z 193.2 (M−H).
