2) After addinq 3 ml of lN hydrochloric acid, the mixture was concentrated to 7 ml. The concentrate was washed three times with 3 ml of chloroform and heated under reflux for lO hours.
3~ Ater cooling it, it was subjected to active :
charcoal column chromatography. A~ter washing the column with 70 ml of water, the adsorbed matter was eluted with 150 ml of a mixture of ethanol-water-concentrated ammonia 20 ~(10 : 9 : l).
4) After concentrating the eluted solution, carbon was removed by the use of cellulose powder.

Recrystallization from a small quantity of water gave 71 mg (0.27 mmole, 61%) of th~ objective compound (II) as white-colored needle-like crystals.
