Amer. Chem. Soc., 1951, 73, 2396) (25.7 g.) in dioxan (500 ml.) was treated with potassium hydroxide (10 g.) and water 250 ml. and the mixture allowed to stand at room temperature for 1 hour. After a further 1 hour at 40° the mixture was diluted with water and the product filtered off. The crude material was dissolved in chloroform and filtered through a column of grade III neutral alumina (ca. 100 g.). The material obtained was crystallised from acetone petroleum to give pure title compound (17.65 g.), as small plates, m.p. 217.5°, [α]D +82.9° (c 1.1), λmax. 234 nm. (ε 10,100).
