The mixture was then filtered (celite) and the filtrate poured into 2M hydrochloric acid. The mixture was extracted with ether and the combined extracts washed with water, saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and water, dried and evaporated in vacuo. Chromatography [SiO2, hexane-ethyl acetate (100:0) to (80:20)] gave 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-cyclopropylpropan-1-ol (44.72 g, 73%).
