The mixture was then stirred at 80° C. for 1 h, quenched with cold water and extracted with EtOAc (2×300 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo to obtain the crude product which was purified via silica gel column chromatography to afford 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-ethanone (3 g, 20%) as a pale yellow solid
