The mixture was diluted with ethanol (40 mL) and filtered through a pad of diatomaceous earth (Celite®) while still hot. The pad was washed with ethanol and the filtrate was concentrated. The concentrate was diluted with water and extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined extracts were washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated to provide 1 g of the desired product.
