The obtained mixture was refluxed, and then benzoic peroxyanhydride (0.045 g, 0.18 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was refluxed overnight, then cooled to r.t. and water was added. The aqueous phase was discarded and the organic phase was dried over MgSO4 and concentrated. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography using a gradient of EtOAc in heptane as eluent to give the title compound (1.39 g, 70% yield): 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 4.75 (s, 2 H) 7.43 (t, 1 H) 7.93 (t, 2 H); MS (EI) m/z 213 M+.
