The reaction mixture was allowed to cool to r.t. then acidified with 2N HCl (ca 20 mL) and extracted with EtOAc. The organic phase was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was triturated with heptane to give the title compound (1.44 g, 54%) as a cream-coloured solid. δH (CDCl3) 8.05-8.16 (m, 2H), 7.96 (s, 1H), 7.85-7.90 (m, 1H), 7.72-7.82 (m, 3H), 7.64-7.71 (m, 1H), 2.79 (s, 3H). LCMS (ES+) 289.3 (M+H)+, RT 4.21 minutes (Method 3).
