The mixture was partitioned between water (100 ml) and ethyl acetate (100 ml), the layers separated, and the aqueus phase extracted with ethyl acetate (100 ml). The combined organic solutions were washed with brine (100 ml), dried (MgSO4) and evaporated under reduced pressure. The residual yellow oil was purified by column chromatography on silica gel using pentane:ethyl acetate (50:50) as eluant to afford the title compound as a white foam.
