Procedure

A solution of 11.15 g. (0.05 mole) of the product of Step A above in 75 ml. of dimethylformamide was cooled to -5° C. and there was then added 2.4 g. (0.05 mole) of 50% sodium hydride. The reaction mixture was aged for 30 minutes at -5° C., after which there was added 3.2 ml. (0.05 mole) of methyl iodide, and the reaction mixture was aged for 1 hour, 15 minutes at 0° C. and 45 minutes at room temperature. The reaction mixture was poured into ice water, seeded and placed in a refrigerator overnight. It was then filtered, washed with water and air dried. A yield of 9.0 g. of product was obtained.
