Reaction Steps

16 (6.63 g, 13.9 mmol, 1 eq) was suspended in ethanol (175 mL, denaturated with 1% methylethyl ketone). Under vigorously stirring an ammonia solution (32% aqueous solution, 18.3 g NH3, 1.075 mol, 77 eq) was added dropwise and the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 171/2 hours to obtain a lavender suspension. The product was isolated by filtration and purified by successive washing with ethanol (250 mL). A lavender solid (91% yield) could be obtained. The compound was directly used in the next step without any further purification.
