Procedure
At room temperature, compound 1a (71.88 g, 1 eq.) and p-toluene sulfonic acid (74.4 g, 1.2 eq.) were dissolved in MeOH (640 mL). The reaction mixture was refluxed for 7 days. The solvent was removed under vacuum and the residue was recrystallised in acetone. The product was isolated by filtration, dried on P2O5 to yield compound 2a as a white solid in 76% yield. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ (ppm) 1.38 (quint, J=7.76 Hz, 2H), 1.71 (q, J=7.76 Hz, 2H), 1.99 (quint, J=6.98 Hz, 2H), 2.38 (s, 3H), 2.70 (t, J=5.17 Hz, 2H), 4.92-4.99 (m, 2H), 5.67-5.73 (m, 1H), 7.20 (brs, 2H).
