Sodium hydride (2 g) was added portionwise to a solution of 3,5-dimethylphenol (6.1 g) in DMF (50 ml). The mixture was stirred for 30 minutes and added dropwise at a temperature below 30° C. to a solution of 2-chloro-2-phenylacetylchloride (9.45 g) in DMF (50 ml). The mixture was stirred overnight, decomposed with water (5 ml) and the solvent was evaporated. Water was added and the mixture was extracted with DCM. The separated organic layer was dried, filtered and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was purified over silica gel on a glass filter (eluent: hexane/DIPE 100/0, 98/2 and 95/5). The pure fractions were collected and the solvent was evaporated [residue; yielding 10.82 g (79%)]. A small amount of the obtained residue was crystallized from DIPE, the precipitate was filtered off and the solvent was evaporated, yielding 1 g of (±)-3,5-dimethylphenyl α-chlorobenzeneacetate (intermediate 5; mp. 79.0° C.).
