After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was poured into dilute hydrochloric acid (1 M, 50 mL), diluted with distilled water (100 mL), was left to stir as is at room temperature for 30 minutes. The precipitated crystals were filtered off, and washed successively with dilute hydrochloric acid (1 M, with approx. 3 mL 3 times), distilled water (approx. 5 mL 2 times), and with diethyl ether (approx. 3 mL). The crystals obtained were dried at reduced pressure with heating to yield the title compound (3.39 g, quant.) as a reddish-orange solid.
