Reaktionsschritte

Aluminum chloride (22.6 g) is suspended in dichloroethane (500 ml) and octylbenzene (16) (21.5 g) is added at room temperature. To the mixture is added acetyl chloride (8.87 g) under ice-cooling. The mixture is stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture is poured into ice water and extracted with ether. The organic layer is washed with brine and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent is evaporated to give 4′-octylacetophenone (18′) as a colorless oil.
