The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 hours, poured into water (250 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×100 ml). The organic layer was separated, dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo to give the title compound (20.15 g, 96%), δH (250 MHz, CDCl3) 3.84 (3H, s, ArOCH3), 4.99 (2H, s, OCH2), 6.80-6.94 (2H, m ArH), 7.21 (1H, d, J 2.75Hz, ArH), 7.28-7.43 (5H, m).
