The reaction mixture was quenched with water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with brine and concentrated. The crude product obtained was purified by 60-120 silica gel using 15% of ethyl acetate in pet ether to get 7 g (86.31%) of pale yellow solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz): 4.85 (2H, bs), 7.25 (1H, d), 7.62 (1H, d). MS 188 (M+H)+.
