Procedure

To 50 ml of refluxing 1N sodium hydroxide solution, under a nitrogen atmosphere, was added a solution containing 10 g (0.028 mole) of (IX) dissolved in 50 ml of 1,4-dioxane. The dark mixture was refluxed for 1/2 hour at which time the solution was cooled and acidified with 10% sulfuric acid. The reaction mixture was extracted with several 50 ml portions of ether, and the combined extracts evaporated to dryness. The residue was chromatographed on a 1 × 12 inch dry column of silica gel. Elution of the column using 3/1 hexane/methylene chloride produced a first band of side-product. Further elution using 1/1 hexane/methylene chloride yielded a second band which contained the desired product. Evaporation of the eluate to dryness in vacuo afforded 2 g (25%) of (X) as light yellow crystals, m.p., 68°-69°C.
