The reaction mixture was poured into 50 ml water and the pH was made basic by addition of 1N aqueous sodium hydroxide. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate, the combined organic layers were dried over sodium sulfate, then concentrated in vacuo. Column chromatography (ethyl acetate/cyclohexane 1:1) afforded the title product as an orange solid (590 mg). 1HNMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz): 7.30 (d, 2H), 6.95 (d, 2H), 6.70 (m, 1H), 3.95 (s, 2H), 3.85 (s, 3H).
