The reaction was stirred for 1 h, and the pH of the reaction was neutralized every 15 min by introducing several drops of AcOH. The reaction was concentrated in vacuo and dissolved into Et2O and 6 N NaOH. The layers were separated, and the organic layer was washed twice with 6N NaOH and extracted with 6 N HCl twice. The acidic aqueous layer was basified with NaOH pellets and extracted 4 times with CH2Cl2. The CH2Cl2 layers were combined, dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to yield the title compound.
