Once the addition was complete, the reaction was stirred for a further 30 minutes, after which time the mixture was poured into water (11) and stirred for 30 minutes. The resulting precipitate was isolated by filtration, washed with water and dried under reduced pressure at 50° C. to afford the subtitle compound as a white solid (35.1 g, 68%). Rf 0.70 (EtOAc:hexane 1:1, v/v).
