To this brown solution was added sodium chloride (100 mg) in portions and then the mixture was heated at 50° C. in an oil bath. After 2 h at 50° C., the mixture was poured onto ice-water and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×10 mL). The combined organics were washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution, water, and brine, dried over sodium sulfate, and evaparated. The brown residue was chromatogaphed on silica gel (eluent: 2:3 ethyl acetate:hexanes) to give 500 mg (76.9%) of the title compound as an off-white solid: 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.05 (d, 2H, J=8.2 Hz), 7.81 (d, 2H, J=8.2 Hz), 7.45 (s, 1H), 2.85 (t, 2H, 7.5 Hz), 1.90-1.75 (m, 5H), 1.70-1.48 (m, H), 1.12 (m, 2H).
