An eggplant type flask was charged with 426 mg of ethyl 1-formylcyclopropane-1-carboxylate to which were further added 771 mg of (S)-1-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine dissolved in 5 ml of ethanol, 293 mg of potassium cyanide dissolved in 2 ml of water and 937 mg of sodium hydrogen sulfite in that order at 0° C. The reaction system was stirred for 3.5 hours at 50° C. After confirming completion of the reaction, the reaction solution was mixed with ice water and extracted with ethyl acetate. Next, the resulting organic layer was washed with water and saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and, after removing insoluble matter by filtration, the solvent was evaporated under a reduced pressure. Thereafter, the resulting residue was subjected to a silica gel column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate=5:1) to obtain 698 mg (72%) of a diastereomer mixture in the form of colorless oil. Formation ratio of the two diastereomers was calculated under the following analytical conditions.
