After cooling, the reaction mixture was added with saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was dried, and the solvent was evaporated to give a pale brown liquid. The resulting liquid was purified by alumina column chromatography using ethyl acetate—n-heptane (1:3) as an eluting solvent to give 12.8 g of a colorless liquid.
