After stirring overnight at rt, the reaction was quenched by the addition of methanol followed by 2N hydrochloric acid. The product was extracted in methylene chloride (3×30 mL), dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to give a colorless oil. This oil was treated with concentrated sulfuric acid (10 mL) at 90° C. for 1 h, diluted with water (50 mL) and the product extracted into methylene chloride (3×30 mL). The combined organics were dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. Silica gel chromatography eluting with 33% ethyl acetate/hexanes gave 0.47 g of the title compound: 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.56 (s, 1H), 6.81 (s, 1H), 5.36 (s, 1H, OH), 3.04 (t, J=5.9 Hz, 2H), 2.65 (t, J=5.8 Hz, 2H), 2.28 (s, 3H)
