The reaction mixture was poured into water and the organic layer was separated. The aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (300×3 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography to give N-[3-(3-methyl-but-3-enyloxy)-phenyl]-acetamide (11 g, 52%).
