The reaction mixture was partitioned between 10% citric acid and ethyl acetate. The phases were separated and the organic phase was washed with brine evaporated and the crystalline residue was triturated under heptane to yield 0.040 g of the title compound as off white powder. MS (M−H) at 496.4 and 498.4.
