Simply, I can make a cup of coffee, simply. i can even brew a cup of tea simply. these are things that this word refers to, simply things.
so the short answer is 'No. Cup of tea?'.
The UN-simplified version you can find here:
Step 2. 2-Acetoxy-1-phenyl-1-propene (cas 24175-87-9) synthesis.
Step 3. 1-Phenyl-2-propanone (P2P; cas 103-79-7).
