After stirring for 30 min, a solution of potassium iodide (322 g, 1.94 mol) in water (500 mL) was then added over 15 minutes. The resulting mixture was stirred at 23° C. for 40 minutes, then diluted with water (2 L) and basified by the addition of solid NaOH (98.0 g, 2.44 mol) with stirring. Iodine by-product was reduced by the addition of 10% aqueous sodium thiosulfate solution and stirring for an additional 30 minutes. The solids were collected by filtration, washed with water, and dried under nitrogen atmosphere to give the title compound, which was used without further purification. MS: m/z 363.1 (M+1).
