The solution was cooled to room temperature, poured into water (200 mL) and extracted with ether (100 mL). The organic layer was separated, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated to afford the acid (6.7 g, 0.03 mol)as brown oil, which was used without further purification. 1H NMR (360 MHz, CDCl3) δ 1.06 (6H, s), 2.24 (2H, s), 2.66 (2H, s), 3.81 (3H, s), 6.74-6.79 (3H, m), 7.19 (1H, t, J=8.1 Hz). MS (ES+) 223 (M+1).
