After addition was complete, stirring was continued for 3 h. The reaction was filtered to remove excess sodium bicarbonate and the solvent removed in vacuo. The residue was redissolved in diethyl ether (1.5 L) and treated with hydrochloric acid (2M in ether, 375 mL, 750 mmol). The resulting suspension was stored in the freezer (−15° C.) overnight. The solid was filtered and washed with diethyl ether until it became colorless to give 126.5 g (89%) as a grey-green powder. 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 2.33 (s, 6H), 7.48 (s, 2H), 9.05 (bs, 3H); 13C-NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 17.4, 91.5, 133.1, 131.2, 136.9.
