After evaporation of the acetone, the mixture was extracted with EtOAc (2×). The organic phase was extracted further with water and brine, then dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated. The product was purified by chromatography on silica gel, eluting with 30% to 50% EtOAc in hexanes, then evaporated to yield a yellow oil (0.57 g). IR(neat): cm-1 1722. 1H NMR(300 MHz, CDCl3): 7.57-7.08 (m, 9H), 3.88 (s, 3H), 3.56 (s, 2H), 3.24 (m, 4H), 2.61 (m, 4H). HR-MS: Calc'd. 311.1760, Found 311.1764.
