(Bromomethyl)cyclopropane (0.53 mL, 5.4 mmol, 0.9 eq) was added, and the mixture was refluxed for 2 days. The solvent was concentrated under reduced pressure, NaOH 10% was added, and the crude was extracted with DCM and dried. The title product (0.88 g, yield 32%) was recovered and used without further purification.
