The combined extracts were washed sequentially with water and brine, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated at reduced pressure. Chromatography of the resultant concentrate on silica gel with a gradient of 5% to 30% EtOAc-hexanes afforded 4-(3-bromophenyl)but-3-yn-1-ol as an orange oil, 7.3 gm (92% yield); 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ: 1.79 (s, 1H), 2.67 (t, 2H, J=6.3 Hz), 3.80 (t, 2H, J=6.3 Hz), 7.14 (t, 1H, J=7.9 Hz), 7.30 (d, 1H, J=7.9 Hz), 7.41 (m, 1H), 7.54 (t, 1H, J=1.6 Hz).
