The resulting mixture is stirred 1 hour at 0° C., warmed to room temperature, and stirred an additional 2 hours. The solvent is removed under vacuum and tetrahydrofuran (200 mL) added to the residue. This mixture is cooled to ~0° C. and a solution of N,O-dimethyl-hydroxylamine hydrochloride (2.64 g, 27.1 mmol) and 1-methylpiperidine (3.30 mL, 27.2 mmol) in dichloromethane (100 mL) is added dropwise. After warming to room temperature, the mixture is stirred 16 hours, diluted with dichloromethane (200 mL), and washed with aqueous 0.1N HCl, saturated sodium bicarbonate, and brine solutions. The organic layer is concentrated and the residue recrystallized from ethyl acetate and hexane to give 4.26 g (58%) of the title compound, mp 137°-138° C.
