Reaktionsschritte

The general McMurry coupling procedure described for 14 was followed. To a stirred suspension of zinc powder (13.0 g, 0.2 mol) in THF (400 mL) was slowly added TiCl4 (11 mL, 0.10 mol) via a syringe at room temperature under a nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was heated at reflux for 1 h. A solution of (4-fluorophenyl)(4-hydroxyphenyl)methanone (4.32 g, 0.02 mol) and 3,3,5,5-tetramethylcyclohexanone (9.26 g, 0.06 mol) in THF (100 mL) was added to the reaction mixture. The reaction mixture was heated at reflux for an additional 2 h. Standar work-up followed by purification gave 5.450 g (80%) of compound 231 as a white solid. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.14 (d, J=5.7 Hz, 1H), 7.12 (d, J=5.7 Hz, 1H), 7.04 (d, J=8.7 Hz, 2H), 6.97 (dd, J=8.7 Hz, 2H), 6.76 (d, J=8.7 Hz, 2H), 4.68 (s, 1H), 1.99 (s, 2H), 1.96 (s, 2H), 1.31 (s, 2H), 0.95 (s, 6H), 0.94 (s, 6H).
