The distillate was extracted with Et2O and the organic phase was washed with brine and dried over Na2SO4. The solvent was evaporated to give the title compound as a yellow liquid (0.5 g, 25%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD) δ 7.95 (1H, d, J=8.8 Hz), 7.31 (1H, d, J=6.8 Hz), 6.62 (1H, dd, J=8.8, 7.6 Hz), 2.63 (2H, q, J=7.6 Hz), 1.27 (3H, t, J=7.6 Hz).
