Reaktionsschritte

8.4 g (36 mmol) of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-2-naphthoyl chloride, 6.9 g (29.7 mmol) of methyl 4-trimethylsilylethynylbenzoate and 100 ml of dichloromethane are introduced into a round-bottomed flask. 16.8 g (125 mmol) of AlCl3 are added portionwise at 0° C. and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 8 hours. The reaction medium is poured into ice and extracted with dichloromethane, and the organic phase is separated out after settling has taken place, dried over magnesium sulphate and evaporated. The residue obtained is purified by chromatography on a column of silica eluted with a mixture of dichloromethane and hexane (50/50% by volume). 6.8 g (61%) of the expected product are collected, with a melting point of 113-4° C.
