The reaction solution was cooled down, and insoluble matter was separated by filtration. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to give 56.58 g of viscous oil. The obtained oil was purified by column chromatography on silica gel with n-hexane/ethyl acetate=5/1 to give 18.98 g of the title compound as white crystals.
