With each addition of sodium hypochlorite solution, 5N NaOH was added as necessary to maintain the pH between 8.5 and 10.5, and the next portion of sodium hypochlorite was added only when the pH was stable for about 5 minutes. The entire addition required approximately 2 hours, and the final pH was 10.3. After being stirred overnight at 45° C., the 2-phase mixture was cooled and separated. The aqueous phase was acidified to pH 3 by addition of 20% sulfuric acid and extracted 3× with ethyl acetate. The combined organic extracts were washed with H2O (3×), then with brine, and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. The residue obtained upon concentration was taken up in 5% NaHCO3 (aqueous) adjusted to pH 9 with 5% NaOH. The aqueous phase was washed twice with methylene chloride and then with ether. Next, the water phase was acidified with 20% sulfuric acid and extracted with ethyl acetate as above to yield 563 mg (49%) of the title compound as an off-white solid, mp 156°-158° C.; TLC in 1:1 hexane-EtOAc (at origin); mass spectrum (EI) m/e 235 (M+). 200 MHz 1H NMR (CD3OD) δ7.87 (d, J=8 Hz, 1H), 8.31 (d, J=8 Hz, 1H), 8.45 (s, 1H).
