The reaction mixture is stirred for 30 minutes, diluted with a 0.4 wt/wt% sodium sulfite solution and extracted with diethyl ether. The organic extracts are combined, washed with saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo to obtain an oil which solidifies to give the title product as a solid (9.2 g) which is identified by 1H and 13C NMR spectral analyses.
