Upon cooling, the alcohol was removed under reduced pressure and water (100 cm3) was added. The remaining tetralone was extracted into diethyl ether (100 cm3) and the aqueous mixture was then extracted further with dichloromethane (2×100 cm3). The combined extracts were dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated under reduced pressure. Trituration with diethyl ether and filtration provided the title compound (3.18 g) as a white solid.
