The reaction was allowed to warm slowly to room temperature and monitored by TLC. Upon complete consumption of starting material, the reaction was carefully neutralized with 1N hydrochloric acid, extracted with diethyl ether, washed, dried, and concentrated. The 1-(4-Bromo-3-methyl-phenyl)-5-methyl-hexan-1-one (5.2 g, 18.4 mmol) 80% yield, was used without further purification.
