反応手順

A flask containing the crude ethyl 4-(4-bromophenyl)-3-methylbut-2-enoate from above (˜30 grams) was treated with concentrated H2SO4 (120 mL) and warmed to 50° C. for 2.5 h. The reaction was poured onto ˜500 mL of crushed ice. Once the ice had thawed, the brown suspension was extracted with two portions of EtOAc (500 mL and 100 mL, respectively). The two extracts were combined, washed with saturated NaHCO3, dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated to ˜55 mL. The residue was treated with DCM and wet-loaded onto a silica gel column and purified by flash chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexanes) giving the desired product (16.6 g, 60% yield over 2 steps from 1-(4-bromophenyl)propan-2-one. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.29 (d, J=1.9 Hz, 1H), 7.57 (d, J=8.6 Hz, 1H), 7.50 (dd, J=8.6, 2.0 Hz, 1H), 7.17 (s, 1H), 6.67 (s, 1H), 2.42 (s, 3H).
