After cooling, the mixture was filtered to remove insolubles and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to dryness. The residue was dissolved in dichloromethane, washed twice with 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide, and redried thoroughly in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in hot pentane and filtered hot, and the filtrate was then concentrated under a stream of nitrogen and cooled in a refrigerator, giving the title compound, m.p. 53°-55°.
