The reaction was stirred at the same temperature for one hour. The reaction mixture was washed with water (500 ml) and 5% solution of sodium carbonate followed by drying over sodium sulphate and distillation to get crude compound, which was purified by column chromatography using hexane as eluant to get pure 2-[6-(2-bromo-acetoxy)-naphthalen-2-yl]-propionic acid methyl ester (14 grams) as a dark brown syrup. The pure product was characterized using 1H NMR spectroscopy in CDCl3 δ 1.55 (d, 3H, CH3), 3.65 (s, 3H, Ester), 3.82 (q, 1H, CH), 4.08 (s, 2H, OCH2) 7.20 (dd, 1H, Ar), 7.4 (dd, 1H, Ar), 7.57 (d, 1H, Ar), 7.72 (d, 1H, Ar), 7.78 (d, 1H, Ar), 7.84 (d, 1H, Ar).
