The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 2 h, made alkaline with water and a 2 N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent, chloroform:methanol=9:1) to give 367 mg of the titled compound (yield, 28%).
