The reaction mixture was concentrated under vacuum and the residue was purified by flash chromatography using hexane:EtOAc::9:1. The desired product was obtained as a clear, pale yellow oil (8.0 g, 0.042 mol, 42%); 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.3-7.2 (m, 2H), 7.2-7.1 (m, 3H), 7.1-6.9 (m, 1H), 5.85 (d, 1H, J=5.8 Hz), 3.75 (s, 3H), 2.8 (t, 2H, J=7.7 Hz), 2.55 (q, 2H, J=7.4 Hz); MS (NH3 -DCI) 191 (M+H)+.
