Water was added to the reaction mixture, and was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with a saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography to give 0.28 g of 2-(3-ethylthio pyridin-4-yl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzoxazole (hereinafter, referred to as “active compound 41”).
