Subsequently, the mixture was extracted with water, dried over sodium sulfate, and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The crude product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (eluent: cyclohexane/ethyl acetate 2:1) to yield an oil, which precipitated upon treatment with petroleum ether/tert-butyl methyl ether to yield 4.38 g (54.6%) of the title compound as yellowish crystals.
