Procedure

A mixture of (4-hydroxy-4-(3-phenoxyphenyl)cyclohexane-1,1-diyl)bis(methylene) bis(4-methylbenzenesulfonate) (390 mg, 0.612 mmol) and powdered NaOH (320 mg, 8.00 mmol) in THF (5 mL) was refluxed for 24 h. The reaction was cooled to rt, diluted with water, and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was dried (MgSO4) and concentrated in vacuo. The crude oil was purified by flash chromatography on SiO2 (0 to 30% EtOAc:hexanes) to afford the title compound (244 mg, 86% yield) as a white solid.
