The reaction was allowed to continue at room temperature for 48 hours. Aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide was added carefully to stop the reaction. The reaction mixture was filtered and the cake was washed with anhydrous ethyl ether for three times. The organic phase was combined and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. Removing the solvent gave 3.4 g product.
