This biphasic mixture is stirred vigorously for 2 hours at 0° C., then is poured into ice and extracted with diethyl ether. All organics are combined, washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate then concentrated in vacuo. The crude product is purified by flash column chromatography (5% ethyl acetate in isohexane to 25% ethyl acetate in isohexane) to afford 4-(2′,4′-dichloro-4-ethylbiphenyl-3-yl)-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpyran-3,5-dione as a yellow gum.
