Ethanol (700 ml) was added and the resulting mixture heated under reflux for 2.5 hours, cooled, then evaporated under vacuum. The resulting solid was treated with 2N hydrochloric acid (380 ml), with external cooling, and the mixture was extracted with dichloromethane (1×700 ml, 3×200 ml). The combined organic extracts were washed successively with saturated aqueous sodium carbonate solution (3×400 ml) and brine (300 ml), then dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated under vacuum.
