Reaktionsschritte

p-Toluenesulfonic acid in a catalytic amount and ethylene glycol (2.9 g) were added to a solution of 3-bromo-1-phenyl-1-propanone (10 g) in benzene (100 ml), and the mixture was stirred at refluxing temperature for 70 hr. The reaction mixture was washed successively with 10% aqueous potassium carbonate solution and brine, and dried. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to give 6.0 g of 3,3-ethylenedioxy-3-phenylpropyl bromide.
