After heating on a hot water bath for 5 minutes, the mixture was cooled by adding ice-water and was made acidic by addition of hydrochloric acid, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated. The resultant residue was separated and purified by silica-gel column chromatography (eluting with ethanol:methylene chloride=3:100) to give the title compound (1.3 g, 65.2%) as colorless crystals, mp 79-81° C.
