The reaction mixture was then cooled to room temperature, diluted with ethyl acetate (30 mL) filtered through celite, and evaporated under vacuum to yield the title compound in quantitative yield. LCMS (ESI): [M-pinacol]+H=156.4; 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO) δ 8.55-8.47 (m, 2H), 2.42 (d, J=2.0 Hz, 3H), 1.33 (s, 12H).
