The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, IN NaOH solution (160 mL) was added and the mixture stirred vigourously. The resulting precipitate was filtered, washed with water and dried under high vacuum to yield the product as a fluffy white solid (13.67 g, 73%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 1.41 (t, 3H, J=7.4 Hz), 2.87 (q, 2H, J=7.4 Hz), 3.64 (s, 3H), 7.44 (t, 1H, J=8.1 Hz), 7.65 (dd, 1H, J=8.8, 0.7 Hz), 7.72 (t, 1H, J=8.4 Hz), 8.27 (dd, 1H, J=9.2, 1.8 Hz); ESI-MS m/z 189.0 (M+1)+.
