The reaction mixture was diluted with water, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water and brine, and dried over an hydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by recrystallization (solvent: ethyl acetate/n-hexane) to afford the title compound (1.25 g).
