Procedure

33.5 g (0.3 mol of potassium tert-butoxide are initially introduced into 100 ml of anhydrous DMF at 0° C., and 51.6 g (0.25 mol) of the compound from Example XX in 250 ml of anhydrous DMF are added dropwise. The mixture is stirred at 0° C. for 30 min and 32.2 ml (0.3 mol) of cyclopentyl bromide in 150 ml of anhydrous DMF are added dropwise at 5°-15° C. and the mixture is stirred at 25° C. for 20 h. After concentrating, the residue is partitioned between water and diethyl ether, and the ether phase is dried over sodium sulphate and concentrated. The product crystallizes out.
