The mixture was stirred at 20° C. over 4 h, then was poured into ice water (1 kg) and extracted with dichloromethane (3×150 mL). The combined extracts were dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated in vacuo to give a brown oil. Chromatography on silica with 1-50% ether in hexane gradient elution gave an off-white solid, a solution of which in ethanol (250 mL) was hydrogenated at 20° C. and 4 bar over 10% palladium on carbon (3.5 g) for 18 h. Catalyst was removed by filtration and the filtrate was evaporated in vacuo to give a residue which was partitioned between saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (300 mL) and dichloromethane (3×100 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated in vacuo to give an oil. Chromatography on silica with 20-50% ether in hexane gradient elution gave the title compound (15.3 g, 59%) as an oil.
