The reaction mixture was cooled to RT and solid Na2CO3 (6 g) was added until the pH was 9. The reaction mixture was filtered through celite, the filter cake was washed with dichloromethane and the filtrate was concentrated to give a residue which was dissolved in ethyl acetate, washed with water, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to give the required material as gum (8 g, 85%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ: 6.88 (s, 1H), 6.71 (s, 1H), 4.3 (brs, 2H), 4.05-4.13 (m, 4H), 3.85 (s, 3H), 3.26 (d, J=20.50 Hz, 2H), 1.28 (t, J=7.05 Hz, 6H).
