Reaction mass was concentrated to 20 volume and again 10 volume of fresh methanol added. The reaction mixture was cooled to - 10 °C and added 50 % sodium hydroxide. Temperature was slowly raised to 35-40 °C and stirred. After completion of the reaction, reaction volume was reduced by distillation under vacuum at <40 °C. To the residue was added methanol/water/MTBE and stirred for 30 minutes at 25°-35°C. MTBE layer is separated from the reaction mixture, aqueous layer is again extracted in MTBE. The combined MTBE layer is concentrated along with ethylacetate as co solvent to displace the MTBE solvent. The obtained solution is treated with ethylacetate: water and cooled to 0-5°C. The pH of the solution was adjusted to 5 using 10% HCL at 0-5°C. The separated ethylacetate layer is dried with sodium sulphite and filtered. The dicyclohexylethylenediamine in ethylacetate was slowly added to the filterate at 10°C and stirred for 1 hour at 10°-25°C. The obtained product is filtered and washed with chilled ethylacetate.
