The dioxane is removed in vacuo to give a solid which is dissolved in acetonitrile (300 ml). 2-Methylimidazole (28.3 g, 0.345 mol) is added to the solution and the mixture is stirred for 1 hour, the temperature of the mixture rising to 45° C. The precipated solid is filtered off, washed with acetonitrile, and slurried with methanol for 1 hour. After filtering to remove undissolved solid, the filtrate is evaporated in vacuo to leave a solid which is dried in vacuo at 40° C. to give the title compound, m.s. 369 (MH+).
