Water and 2 N hydrochloric acid were added to the reaction liquid, extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with aqueous saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and saturated saline water, and dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated away under reduced pressure to obtain crude 2-(3-bromophenyl)propan-2-ol.
