���Following the detection of the very bright GRB 230307A (Burns et al.
GCNC 33414) by Fermi/GBM (the Fermi GBM team, GCNC 33405; Dalessi, GCNC
33407; Dalessi and Roberts, GCNC 33411), GECAM (Xiong et al., GCNC
33406), Solar Orbiter/STIX (Xiao and Krucker, GCNC 33410), AGILE/MCAL
(Casentini et al., GCNC. 33412), INTEGRAL/SPI-ACS, Mars-Odyssey/HEND
(Kozyrev et al. GCNC 33413), AstroSat/CZTI (Navaneeth et al. GCNC
33415), GRBAlpha (Dafcikova et al. GCNC 33418), VZLUSAT-2 (Ripa et al.
GCNC 33424), Konus-WIND (Svinkin et al. GCNC 33427) and Swift-BAT
(Tohuvavohu, GCNC 33431), we observed 60% of the preliminary IPN error
box (Kozyrev et al. GCNC 33413) with a 0.5m wide-field telescope in the
vicinity of the BOOTES-7 astronomical station at San Pedro de Atacama
Space Observatory. No optical candidate down to 17.4 mag is found on the
images (clear filter, 1.6h co-add) starting at 4:36 on Mar 8 UT (i.e.
12.9 h postburst) within the entire improved IPN position (Kozyrev et
al. GCNC 33425).���
