The mixture was evaporated and the residue was taken up with AcOEt, washed with 1N HCl and sat. NaHCO3, dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated. The residue was purified by column chromatography (silica gel; eluent: toluene) to give 2-chloro-4-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)benzoic acid methyl ester (216 mg).
