The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. It was concentrated to dryness to provide the crude acid chloride as a brown-yellow waxy solid. The crude acid chloride was dissolved in THF (10 mL) and was added dropwise to a stirred mixture of concentrated NH4OH (20 mL) and THF (10 mL) at 0° C. The reaction mixture was warmed to room temperature and stirred for 1 h and was adjusted to pH 8 with 2 N HCl. The precipitate was collected, washed with water, and dried in vacuo to afford the title compound (0.73 g, 63%) as a white solid: 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.88 (d, J=3.3 Hz, 1H), 7.82 (br s, 1H), 7.47-7.43 (m, 2H), 7.40-7.37 (m, 2H), 7.33-7.30 (m, 1H), 7.10 (dd, J=9.0, 3.3 Hz, 1H), 6.94 (d, J=9.0 Hz, 1H), 5.75 (br s, 1H), 5.08 (s, 2H), 3.94 (s, 3H); ESI MS m/z 258 [M+H]+.
