After stirring 2 h at 0° C., the reaction mixture was warmed to room temperature over 1 h. Then the reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C., quenched with H2O (100 mL) and 3N HCl (200 mL), extracted with EtOAc and washed with brine. The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to afford the crude product, which was purified by column chromatography to yield 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-3-methylbutan-2-ol (45.9 g, 90%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.46 (d, 1H), 7.37 (d, 1H), 7.21 (dd, 1H), 3.83 (m, 1H), 1.31 (s, 3H), 1.29 (s, 3H), 1.05 (d, 3H).
