The reaction mixture was concentrated under a reduced pressure. Titanium (IV) tetrachloride (1.81 mL, 16.4 mmol) was added under nitrogen atmosphere to a tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) and methylene chloride (20 mL) suspension of the residue, and stirred for 1 hour 15 minutes at 0° C. Water was added to the reaction mixture at 0° C., which was then extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was separated, washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under a reduced pressure to obtain the title compound (2.1 g, quant.). This compound was used in the subsequent reaction without further purification.
