The crude reaction mixture was concentrated onto silica and chromatographed (silica gel, eluent=2:1 hexanes:ethyl acetate) to give the product as a resin (10 mg, 54%) that could be crystallised by standing in hexanes in the freezer overnight; 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 7.08 (s, 2H), 6.92 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 1H), 6.82 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 1H), 5.73 (br s, 1H), 3.93 (s, 3H), 3.92 (s, 3H), 3.84 (s, 6H), 2.66 (s, 3H).
