The residue was dissolved in dichloromethane (8 ml) then benzylamine (0.022 ml, 0.20 mmol) and triethylamine (0.05 ml, 0.36 mmol) were added. The mixture was stirred for 3 h at room temperature then concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (eluant; 30% pet. ether:70% EtOAc) to give a white fluffy solid identified as the title compound (36.5 mg, 50%).
